"The Call"

My parents opened their mission call this morning and they will be serving in Cleveland, Ohio! Specifically, in the city of Akron as CES missionaries. I have been doing my research tonight and I am thinking they will be working a lot with seminary and institute. The papers didn't say what they would be doing as CES missionaries so they were a little confused! This came as a shock to all of us since they had requested to serve in a specific mission and it wasn't this one! I thought most couple missionaries got to choose where they got to go and it was a done deal but it just shows how much the Lord cares about us individually and challenges us in ways we could never imagine. I know they will do an amazing job and I am so privileged to have parents that are willing to serve the Lord. Oh...the scariest part of it all is that they are leaving March 23rd!

Side note: Ryan slept terrible last night and I woke up with the worst migraine ever. Chris had to stay home school to watch Ryan because I could not even function. I really wanted to be in Centerville to watch my parents open their call. They had to open it around 11:30 since the grand kids would be coming and going from school and other activities. Chris left for school around 9:40 and I left at 10:20 and Ryan slept the whole way...thank goodness! The point of all of this...I totally forgot my camera!
