Called to Serve

After a long wait (almost 12 weeks) the call finally came while Kaleb was up at Papa and Grandma's house, just as we predicted it would.

It sat on the hearth for a day unopened until an impromptu trip brought me and the call to Papa and Grandma's house for a surprise.  My Mom picked me up at the airport and I hid in the room for the night.  The next morning at breakfast, I came up behind Kaleb,  covered his eyes and said surprise!  Then I handed him the envelope.  He was so excited!!!!  It may have been one of the few times I have been able to genuinely surprise him.  I can't believe I flew all the way there with this news......It changed our lives forever.
