Good Things Come to Those Who Wait: Missionary Girl

I had the day off today so I could take my best friend to the MTC. As I was waiting for Haley to get out of the airport, I was thinking how I wished she had a cell phone so I could know where she was and when she was coming out. I don't know what people did before cell phones. After 15 minutes of waiting I finally saw her and got out so she could see me. As we drove home we chatted and caught up since we haven't seen each other for about a year! It is a tradition in our family that when we take a missionary to the MTC, we have J Dawgs for lunch then drop them off. So of course Spencer and I had to take her, and she loved it!! As we headed to drop her off I, being the baby that I am, may have shed some tears...We finally made it through the traffic of other people dropping missionaries off, when Haley spotted Bryan Brittain! She rolled her window down and shouted his name and he ran down to where we were dropping her off and he escorted her into the MTC, but not before we got some pictures and chatted with Bryan. I'm pretty sure the senior missionaries were annoyed with us because we stayed longer then we were supposed to and warned us that the cop was coming down to tell us we needed to leave. I was so excited to be able to see her before she left for the MTC, even if it was only a couple of hours. Malaga, Spain is lucky to have her and I know she is going to be a great missionary!
