James' week in Korea came and went all too quickly. The office elders thought it was pretty interesting to see what a mom about to meet her returning missionary is like. It was the strangest thing! I was so excited that I was hyper-ventilating, unable to breathe normally!
It was all so wonderful to see him and hug him, and just look at him! What a joy to see the effects of 2 years of selfless service, growth and maturity. It was heart warming to share a deep love and appreciation of the scriptures together, and to witness a solidity that gives a parent great peace. Every moment was so fun, I didn't even mind one bit being slaughtered in every game of monopoly! I can't believe I forgot to take very many pictures, but these are fun!

what happened to my comment?! I said he looks so tall and grown up now. Also, thanks Mom for pointing out my misspell and hence embarrassment to tow/toe heads.
Can't believe it's been two years already. Guess he's heading back to school?
So fun! I am glad you guys had such a wonderful time. I just sent some of James things to UT with my parents - one of the things I threw into a suitcase was one of James well used suits......I am so glad you visited my Sun!!!
That pic of James and Dad is SO beautiful!! Can I please have a copy? The smiles are huge and they're glowing and it made me want to cry! Great photos even for just getting a few. I'm glad it was such a great week, can't wait to see you in a few more!
