It's been a great few weeks! Mariah came home July 14 and life is good! My friend, Rachelle Bird, describes having a missionary come home as childbirth, without any labor or delivery pains. You look forward to them coming, do some nesting, count the days, see them coming through the gate, then finally holding them in your arms is just the best feeling. It's been great to have her home. Balance is restored in our family. We were at a Simpson reunion in Oregon this week, and as our family was on a hike, I looked ahead and saw all 6 of my kids hiking together and it was the best site in the world.
She has shared many of her experiences, and her mission report in church was wonderful. What a treasure it has been to watch her serve, share in her experiences, and witness her testimony grow. Really, what more could a mother want for her children?
