Okay, so my mom is totally in love with the elders. Yesterday mom made bread and as soon as it came out of the oven she had to call the elders to come up and have a slice of hot homemade bread. When they left she sent the rest of the loaf with them. She is funny that way, she insists on doing their laundry and is always trying to do things for them. One funny thing that happened was when we had a new elder, fresh from home and he had a new white shirt just out of the package. It was very wrinkled, so he came up to ask if he could borrow the iron. Mom would have none of that and insisted that she iron it for him. When she told me this story I teased her about it, but she just said "they have better things to do than to be ironing clothes!"
It will be a very sad when the elders leave. When they asked me to house the missionaries, they asked me to commit to 18 months. My mom is already asking if we can go longer than that. This is actually a great thing, because it gives her something to do.
This is a blog about my experiences hosting Elders who are full-time missionaries for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, also called Mormons.
