I cant believe Christopher comes home so soon. He will fly into the St. George Airport on September 8th at 4:28 pm. I am so excited. We received the official travel papers from the mission office.
Here is his latest email:
Mom, thanks for the email. It was great. I am starting the last transfer of my mission. It is crazy! I just filled out the last planner of my mission, (putting the date and regular scheduled meetings and stuff), so I am kind of freaking out. But it is OK. I get to "die" in Sheridan and it is nice. There are mountains and some of my favorite missionaries. I am getting along so much better with my companion. I learned something that really helped. It is: "silence isn't golden - tact is." So I just have to "want" to get along and we get along. I can either be happy or be right and I choose happy. So things are going great. We have two people on date now and we are just cooking along. Well I will send this in hopes that you will send back. Got to go. Love Elder Esplin
