Did you get calls this weekend from that missionary of yours? How was it? Did it make you sad or make them sad? Or was it just great to hear their voices. I have been out of the loop a while, but this blog is based on the assumption that missionaries still get to call home twice a year. Once on Mother's Day and once on Christmas. Does that still hold true? I actually do not remember calling home on Mother's Day. I am sure I did. I think I called my twin sister too. She had just had her first child, so I rationalized that she was a mother worth calling.
I also thought about Sister Yancey yesterday calling her kids. She is a Senior Sister and surrogate mother to my husband and me from our youth. I thought about how those roles were in reverse. The mom calling from the field as the missionary. What a great example she is!
We just wanted to challenge you to write down or scrapbook the experience of your Mother's Day phone call this week.
