This was her before. Her nerves were high. But after talking to President Stringham she felt much better at at peace with everything Jeff and I were then called into his office along with Chelstienes Bishop and his counselors. The meeting was nice.
As we were leaving the house today she cried as she said goodbye to her pets.We then went to the Provo Temple and walked around for a while before it was time to drop her off at the MTC.
After pictures and walking we went to the MTC to drop her off. It's very well organized. We got a pink sticker on our car because we were dropping off a Sister Missionary. We then proceeded to drive to the next spot. We go out of the car with Chelstiene and took out her luggage. A Host Elder Missionary from Brazil who speak Portuguese that is going to Japan to speak Japanese was helping us and telling us what goes on. As Chelstiene gave her hugs goodbye she started to cry. I did my best not to cry in front of her. Brad wont admit it but he was almost in tears as her picked her up off the ground in a giant bear hug.Then a Sister Host Missionary going to Oakland California to speak Chinese came and took her away. Then we drove off. It still seems weird that I wont see her for 18 months. But I am so proud of what she is doing.
Yeah, I totally almost cried reading this!! I miss her already!
