Andrew is gone. There are vacuum marks untouched in the carpet, no shoes to trip over and no towels to wash by the dozens. I miss him. Sooooo this should free up some extra time to start blogging again. I guess I'll start with last week. The family took a little trip to Utah to take Elder Hollis to the MTC. A Hollis tradition to go through a session at the Salt Lake temple was the highlight for me. Craig got sick so Andrew and I went together. A beautiful experience I will never forget.
A little goodbye dinner with the family at Wingers.
THE CURB
No more wonderful experience at the MTC for families, just a quick drive-by as you QUICKLY drop them off.
Andrew Craig Hollis (my baby), I will miss you with all my heart but there is no better place I would have you be right now. Missions are the greatest program of the Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints. You will be a man when you return with invaluable lessons learned. You will have been a representative of the Lord sharing the great message of the restored Gospel and ready to start a new life of service in the Church.
We pray for your safe RETURN WITH HONOR in two years.

Did you cry your heart out as you wrote this? I almost did! It's wonderful but terrible at the same time, if you know what I mean. Here's to counting down the days and waiting anxiously for those letters!
Huge smiles . . .
