I was able to be there for their setting apart blessing and it talked about how their children would be blessed for their service. When the stake president said this, I didn't think that pertained to me. I couldn't see how we would have such great blessing happen to us, because I felt like we already had everything. I am so gratefully they choose to serve the Lord! Many of our family members and friends have left Houston and without my parents here my heart would've broken... My heart still aches for those who left, but my mom is here to hold me up. I love my parents.

Happy Anniversary to your mom and dad!
Aww, Mary, I'm so glad your parents are there for you. I can't believe the timing of everything happening to your family. People (us, Daniel & Janet AND Courtney!) leaving, your parents coming- just crazy and actually really special that the Lord knew you would need that support. They could've been called to serve further north or south, but nope- right in Houston :)
I love the picture- everyone looks so happy, especially your mom and Elena.
