Missionary Monday


"I'm glad to go back to the city. I love being around people. Mom, you’re gonna be in shock when I get home because I almost talk as much as you now. I have to make up for quiet comps that say 20 words a day so it's all good."
Let's just say that before his mission Elder Jordan did not waste his words. There was a lot of grunting. He's not shy, more like the strong silent type...I'll believe it when I hear it. Only two more months until we talk to him.
In other news, I got a phone call from his Dr in Idaho. Elder J has weekly allergy shots to help keep him healthy. He has asthma too. We discussed his health and it was so nice to get a report from his allergist. He has had the same Dr his entire mission and he has helped to keep Jordan well which is no small feat. Now if he can make it through this stinkin flu season...he is like a walking petri dish.

That really is amazing that he has had the same doctor his whole mission.

Here's to no bronchitis, swine flu, or strep...go Elder Jordan!!

What if he's a complete motor mouth now?? It'll just be more of the funny stuff we love!

His health will be just fine. It is no small coincidence that he has been so healthy thus far.

Once again, I love that kid!

My mom said he was pretty quiet when she fed him, but that was months ago. Yup. He has probably changed. Also, the allergies really back off starting in November. He will start feeling better once all that pollen is gone.

Bradley WASN'T one of his "quiet" companions, maybe he started talking more to get a word in edge-wise!!! Where is he being transfered to?
