It's late. I'm tired and I can't get photos to upload tonight. So, I'll just jot a few notes. I'll do a better job next week -- maybe.
Anyway, it's been a whirlwind week. Transfer Week on top of still training our replacements. Christopher came to Tacoma Thursday evening. We went to dinner at Harbor Lights and then we drove him back to Seattle. Nice evening. Had dinner invitations Friday, Saturday, and today. I'm pretty much done cooking for a while. The cupboards are bare.
We enjoyed listening to General Conference while we've been packing and cleaning. It was a wonderful conference and Easter Weekend. Can't wait to read the talks soon.
Most of our stuff is packed. We will go into the office tomorrow, say our final "goodbyes," and then be heading out Tuesday morning. We are ready. But saying goodbye has been difficult. After lunch at Mission Leader Council on Friday, the young missionaries sang "As I Have Loved You" to those of us who prepared lunch. I lost it. Couldn't hold back the tears. We have grown to love so many of these wonderful young missionaries.
I am finding it difficult to even express my feelings. Words are not adequate. So, for now, this is it. Next week perhaps I'll have my wits about me.
