Where's Robbie?

On Wednesday our family drove to Provo and took my little brother Robbie to the Missionary Training Center. He being the first missionary in our family it was an interesting experience. I don't think any of us knew what to expect. Of course we all cried saying goodbye to him knowing we would not see him for two years. However we do know that he is going to have some of the most amazing experiences. We are all excited for him and can't wait to hear about all of them. I am sure his two years in Germany will be well worth it! It's been hard to have him gone and will take some getting used to. On Thursday morning my mom got out of bed and the first thing she heard when she walked out of her room was "where's Robbie"? My parrot who talks constantly decided to make those the first words she said. My mom broke down crying. Hopefully it will get a little bit easier. It will be fun to get his first letter and to know how he is doing.

oh man - the first one is the hardest. It seems like they will be gone forever - but he'll be back before you know it. In the mean time, letter writing lets you know them in a new way- good luck!
