He's there. It was a seriously the hardest thing I have ever done and yet once again a true testiment to me of a loving Heavenly Father. As things have changed we went to take final pictures at the Provo Temple. As we were leaving Bridger turned around to see one of his friends Elder Brock Rose who had just left from doing a session. He hugged him and told him how happy he was there and how much Bridger was going to love it there. After a few more laps around the temple we entered the MTC. As promised Elder Parker Rose, Brock's triplet was there to greet and host him. The pictures tell it all. True tender mercies from our Father in Heaven to put a worried mom's heart at peace knowing he had a friend to take him in and get him where he needed to go. Now the countdown can begin...
All packed and ready to go
Telling Zoie good-bye.
At the Provo Temple
Elder Parker Rose. They had arranged for him to host and this picture says it all. They are truly happy to see each other.
Telling his Dad good-bye.
And his mom, I don't want to let go. Love this boy!
Off he goes to one grand adventure. God Bless you Elder Clayton. We will pray for you and miss you, but wouldn't want it any other way.
