John continues to do well as he grows and thrives on his mission in Colorado. In February he reached the six-month mark, which means he's 25% of the way done. I miss him A LOT, but I'm so happy he's made such selfless Christ-centered choices in his life. Not to make it about me, because it's not, but I'm finding that it's a rewarding blessing in my life to have a child who is turning out like this. It gives me a small glimpse of what it must be like for Heavenly Father when His children choose to follow Him.
John is having fun, making good friends, working hard, navigating through challenges and adversities that sometimes come up, learning and growing, and loving and caring about people in a way that he never has before. It's a wonderful thing to see!
