Are We Ready Yet?

Everyone keeps asking if we are ready to leave. If they mean having everything organized, then I have to say we are never ready until we just go out the door and head for the MTC. What gets done gets done and what doesn't, oh well . . .

We do have a checklist of most important things that need to be done. The Church provides very detailed information on what to take and what to expect. Delta Airlines is clear about what we can take and how much. Family members have promised to mail anything we cannot live without. Our first mission helped us realize how little we actually need to be perfectly happy. So, I guess we're almost good to go.

Are we ever really ready to leave our loved ones? No. That is hard to do, but it is for the greater good and the time gone will be shorter than it seems. We are most grateful for a very supportive family.

The hardest thing is to anticipate the things one might forget that we won't know we needed until we forget them and can't find them in England.
