Sunshine T shirt and all the boys are awaiting his return.
Ladies and Gentlemen, the final rose...No I am not talking about the Bachelor. I have a sweet friend that after the first month Mitch was gone she brought me a rose, then 2 roses after 2 months, 3 after 3 and so on until 12 then she went backwards. This month she brought me one rose again, the final one! it was so sweet of her to do this, she never missed a month.
O.K here we go. Finally down to the last month, the last 4 weeks, the last 30 days!
It is so exciting to think that Elder Sheridan will be home in such a short time. I am counting down the days but also a little stressed over all the things that need to be done in the next month. I unpacked his boxes of clothes and treasures this week to start washing them and getting his room ready. I did cry a couple of times when I pulled a favorite t shirt out of the box, like his purple t shirt with the Kellogg's sunshine on it ha ha.
We are all SO excited to get him back home. His mission has been an awesome experience for him and has changed him so much. It has also been an awesome experience for our family. I am a little sad that the experience is coming to an end but as I read his letter this week about him eating sugarless oatmeal for lunch because that is all he had, I am ready to get him home and make him some of his favorite things, hug him and just be able to hear his laugh ( even though Thomas now sounds just like Mitchell).
So in just 30 short days the day I thought would take forever to get here will be here. Let the party begin!
