If anyone has a moment to read an article I read today in LDS Living entitled "A New Normal: Finding Hope after Most of My Family Died" please READ. I thought about sending it to Schyler, although the part about this sister losing her family while serving a mission might be disturbing to Schyler (and lets face it - its disturbing to all of us) - she, Sister Parrish managed to see the bigger picture which so often most of us miss completely. This is the part I felt was so important for Schyler to read and understand and really something we all need to be reminded of. I sat and balled when I read this, but the miracle is that this gal gets it. I wish to be more like that and really "get it" when things get hard. This is not an easy task by any means. Please read - let us know what you think.
We heard from Schyler today (briefly), but WOW ! that is such a great sign that she is delving into the work and THE PREPARATION !!!! A moment of sadness to not have her there via email a bit longer, but really it was just a moment. I am so happy for her. The language is slowly slowly coming for her but her spirits are up and she is determined. Attached are a few additional pictures from this week...
