I am a firm believer that we have angels who surround us here on earth and ones who have passed on from this earth.
This is the first of hopefully many situations where someone takes a picture of my son and sends it to me.
The text message read:
"Hi this is Mary Kae Nielson, look who we saw in the MTC"
When I saw the picture and read the text, my eyes welled and I smiled so big. It was such a wonderful surprise. It was a week ago that we dropped John off at the MTC and so today was a little hard. My spirits were really lifted looking at this picture. It truly was perfect timing.
He looks so HAPPY!! I mean, just look at that smile! I am sure he was thrilled it was 'Pizza day' but still - he doesn't fake happiness. He exudes happiness.
One more week and he heads to the West Virginia Charleston Mission!
"We love you Elder Conrad"
