I have some really really REALLY happy news! Okay so the Hargarther Family that I met when I served in Newark got sealed together as a family in the Palmyra Temple last Saturday! I was not able to make it to the sealing of Brother and Sister Hargarther a few weeks ago so they told me I better be at the one where they were bringing their kids to be sealed to them. So I did! I was able to work it out in our busy schedule to go! I was so happy to be there. When the kids walked into the temple little Nick their son runs up to me and hugs me and says, "Sister Adam I missed you so much! Guess what? I am five years old now!" Oh my gosh that just melted my heart. Seeing their beautiful family all dressed in white to be sealed together was more wonderful than words can express. They went through so much when I was with them in Newark... but because they endured and relied on the Lord they made it to the temple and are now a forever family :)
We've been getting so many bus tours at the historic sites it is insane! Yesterday we had six buses at once here at the Whitmer Farm. It will just get crazier and crazier until Pageant gets here and then after Pageant we will start to slow down again. Cast training practice is going well so far. It is kind of crazy because we are not authorized to have personal computers as missionaries.. but the Pageant presidency gives us one to take home so we can practice our slide shows and get them down for our trainings with the cast. When we brought ours home our roommates came in and saw us with a computer in the house and were so confused haha. Missionary life is so weird sometimes. I think I am finally realizing just how different it will be when I am not a missionary... yikes.We are never forgotten. Sometimes we feel insignificant or that the Lord has too many other things to worry about and our struggles and our lives don't matter. That is not true.. He is very aware of each and everyone of us. He has graven us upon the palms of his hands. So go to Him, trust Him, and follow Him.
