Letter from Ecuador Mother's Day 5/13/2012

Dear Families,                                                                                               May 13, 2012

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY! to all of our children...regardless you have children at home, away at school, graduated, married, unmarried, having children of their own or children you take care of at school...have a wonderful Sabbath day along with Mother's Day. Know that we love you and feel your prayers, and hope you feel ours to you all. WE MISS HOME AND FAMILY. Don't ever think that we are having the time of our lives...THIS IS HARD WORK and we come home exhausted. Our brains are constantly engaged and deciding what to say or do next. But we love it and every day is a new one with many things to discover about ourselves and those we work with. We love doing the work!!!

Personally, this may sound weird, but I think the best time of the day is around 5:30 or 6:00 pm, when we take out the garbage to the trash receptacle. We take a long walk together and walk hand-in-hand and feel the balmy breeze of the evening. The temple lights come on around 6:30 and it is gorgeous! We go the back way so we can be by ourselves and talk and stroll. We are really getting to know each other while we're here...and we love it.
We love you ALL,
Mom and Hal, or Grandma and Grandpa, or Dad and Fran
