My grandson is on his final 'transfer'. He was sent back to the field, in an area close to where he started. So he's back to Monday P-days.
Today's email ended with this semi-final paragraph:
"My companion and I are trying to work super hard and be an example for the district. It's a bit of a struggle, but with the Lords help we can do it!"
It had been preceded by other pious ramblings...
Then came the photos. There is NOTHING in the photos that relates to the previous pious ramblings!!! Most of you have seen these type of mishie photos... They love to mug to the cameras! And where the heck does THIS* photo fit into the grand scheme of mormon things and missions?

And here's news: his younger brother is NOT going on a mission. There are skimpy details from my oldest son about my TBM daughter's second son, (my daughter has not mentioned a word about this!!! Oh, the shame she must feel!!) and they are NOT good for the mormonish part of his upbringing. It's been a year since he graduated from high school and all he wants to do is work to make money which he spends on partying. Apparently they are trying to 'reason' with him, to get him to put in his papers, but you know how well 'reasoning' works with late teen boys!
