Our first goodbyes

ahhhhh Goodbyes are just plane horrible. I am the type that would just like to avoid them at all cost. I just want to slip away and pretend we don't have to say goodbye. I know it is kind of lame. So we said goodbye to my dad! So ruff! He is taking the team to Bali this year with a couple of other good friends. Good stuff. How do you say bye to family. Its so hard to express the love/sadness/happeness/joy etc in that brief moment. Byfar the hardest was having my dad saying bye to Le'i. They have a special little relationship. Building forts in his bedroom, random trips to Walmart, and little gifts from garage sale shopping. I am so blessed that Le'i knows my parents and has such a connection with them. Honored that I still have parents alive to know him and love on him as much as we do. My parents are such a gifts. I am so grateful that my parents have always wanted us in the center of the Lords will. Even when they wish we would stay near them forever. They have pushed me to be better, work hard, play hard but most of all they have shown me what it means to walk with the Savior with passion and surrender. I am so amazed by their lives and what they have done and suffered. I do not know how they do it. They work harder then anybody I know. Mom and Dad thank you for loving us girls with all your hearts. For loving us, for correcting us, for sharing wisdom, most importantly telling us daily we were made for greatness and nothing is impossible. To always look for the good in people and to love the unloveable. I love you and I will miss you so much! On a lighter note. Our friend made this welcoming us to Sweden. I hope all Swedish days look like this. A girl could wish right. :)
