So I ran downstairs to the TV and saw that it was still recording, hooray!! We started it over from the beginning, watched for a few minutes and there was my boy looking all handsome in his suit and tie.
A few minutes later I got a text message from another friend telling me she had just seen Elder Smith on TV. Haha, love it!
One year ago this morning when President Monson made his big announcement I had no idea what this year would bring for Braden. Still can hardly believe it. Less than three months later he turned 18. A few weeks after that he turned in his mission papers. Then his call came, he graduated from high school, and was gone. It all happened so fast! I am grateful that he was ready, willing and worthy to immediately heed the call of the prophet.
