Mark Got His Call!

Mark just called me and told me that his mission call is here! Here's the clincher...he can not open it until Saturday night when my parents get home from Lake Powell. I was thinking that it is going to be so dififcult to have to wait a couple of hours but that is even more killer for him! I am sure glad that I am not in his spot,I dont think I could not open it, I would probably sneak and open it, that is why I had my mission call sent to my parent's house....there is no way that I could make that drive not opening my call. I am so excited for Mark. I can not believe that he is going on a mission. I remember him as that little kid in McAllen in his little suit, red tie, and a very straight part in his hair! He is so cute, and is going to make a fabulous missionary. I am so excited to be able to share experiences with im and to be going through some of the same stuff as him. I definitley do not feel like my mission call is coming. It just does not feel real. To be honest...this is kind of a difficult and discouraging time for me. I have made the right decision and because great things are about to happen there are many roadblocks being put in my way. I can not belive that the next year and a half of my life is printed on a piece of paper. How crazy is that? I am so grateful for the apostles and the Spirit. I wouldn't want anyone else taking control. I feel as though my life in Provo is coming to an end, which is quite a statement because I have been here for the last three years...almost more than I have been anywhere else. So my life in Provo is ending but I have no idea where I am going next, all I can do is put my trust in my Heavenly Father and know that what happens is right!
