Finally almost at the end!!!!!

So I have been lucky enough to talk to Matt every Sunday since he has been gone! He is doing very well and for some reason it does not seem to affect him as bad as we all thought. He is actually enjoying himself but really missing the fun times at home and the simple things. I started thinking of all the simple things that life has to offer and how much the simple things really do matter. After all its the simple things that lead up to the big things in life. When i was at church i started to think about how the simple things in the Gospel bring us great joys in our life. I'm so grateful for the opportunity to be a member of the only true church on the earth today. I'm so grateful for a husband who is obedient to the word of God. Who loves the gospel so very much. I'm so grateful for the family he grew up in that teaches their children strong gospel principles and did their very best to make sure he took his wife to the Temple. I'm so excited to teach our kids all about the Gospel and hope that they to one day enjoy the simple things in life that lead to the big things! I believe Matt is doing so well because he has not only the love of his family for support but the love from His Father in Heaven. I know that by reading scriptures and saying prayers even when we are far apart only make us grow stronger and closer to one another. Sorry for a long post with no pictures but I hope that as you go through out your week you take a minute to really enjoy the simple things in life. That even when baby's are crying and things don't seem to be going are way that we thank Heavenly Father for all that we do have. Well i better get off to work but I love you all very much and cant wait to see you again.
Love,
Melissa
