I was talking to one of the younger missionaries today as he was watching a video of Elder Kinghorn and I dancing with the children in the Kindergarten for the deaf and he said,

"you guys really have a different kind of mission, you do things and see things that most couples don't get to do." This is so true. I have loved this work. It has been so incredible. Every day is completely different from the day before. I am so amazed how Bruce and I have taken our individual talents and combined them in a way that helps us do this job so efficiently. We both have really enjoyed doing Humanitarian Work. It has been a richly rewarding experience and we both feel so blessed to have had this opportunity.
