Called to Serve... My turn!

This day the memories were just FLOODING back to May 3, 2012 when Kyler got his mission call. I remember going over at lunch to make sure he didn't get it and open it before everyone got there. I remember being nervous, anxious, so scared and too excited. I remember the exhaustion hit in right after he opened it. We were all emotionally drained but it was the most amazing experience. Well yesterday, November 8, 2012.. five months later I recieved my call. It was such an exciting day! The post office called me at 8:00 and told me it was here! I went and picked it up, and actually the day FLEW by. I was driving home from work when it hit me... Kyler is missing this. I mean I knew there were a lot of things he was going to miss over the next 2 years but I just had't thought about it until that minute and I found myself not wanting to go home. I put it out of mind and went home and got ready to open it. I got my recorder and started talking to him, telling him we were opening my call. Then im reading and before I get to it my mom GASPS and Im like "what is she freaking out about I haven't gotten there yet" so i pause then it makes me race forward and I see Stockholm Sweden. WOW where my siser Alice Johansson is from! She's not technically my sister but she is really. I cannot express my joy!!! I know I am meant to be there and I am soooo happy!!! This was such incredible testament to me of revelation. I love this church. I cannot WAIT to serve and teach it there! I cannot WAIT to tell Kyler over the phone on Tuesday! He is going to flip his lid. I can't wait to tell him that not only do I need to learn Russian but HE has to learn Swedish! haha yessss! Oh and did I mention he has to wait for me for month after he gets home? haha I love that so much.
