12/24/2014 The Call

We were not sure what time Chad was going to call home, he had told us he was allowed to Skype but he never said when he would be calling or anything!  About 4:00, I got an email from him that told me he was ready when we were!  He told us what name he would be skyping up from... It was SO exciting to see him!!!  We only got to see him for a few minutes, not sure about "Skype" we might have to try something different on Mother's Day!  Luckily in the couple of minute that we were able to SEE him I snapped a picture with my phone.  It is not a very good picture but you can see that he was all smiles!

I think he was most amazed at little Marleigh walking around!  It was SO good to see him all smiles! He talked and talked!  He shared some advice he had given one of the ladies they are teaching... he had asked her if she was reading her scriptures to which she replied that she had.  He then asked her if she had been praying and she told him that she really wasn't.... he told her to pray until she could feel His love for her.  We could really tell he has grown up in just these few months and is having some wonderful experiences!  I don't think I have ever heard him speak so much and so loud, haha...
He bore his testimony to us of the truthfulness of the gospel in Spanish, Devin said he did a great job!  And, before we hung up we had a family prayer, it was a great day!

Keep up the great work that you are doing son!  ...until Mother's Day... Love you!
