Not much time left.....

I have learned many things on my mission and I remember talking with my mother about it one day. She told me that I haven't even begun to use the many things that I had learned and that I will see it as I continue with my life. She would know since she served, and I felt in my heart that she was right. I have seen how a mission has helped me in my marriage now, and I will continue to see it as my family grows. My soul was touched by a quote that was given to me and it is by President Hinckley, " Many young women are serving missions. Many are preparing to serve not because they aren't married or have nothing else to do, but because they have the desire to serve, and therefore are being called to the work. The reason so many are going is because in the next genreation Heavenly Father will be sending his Priesthood Army to the earth. He wants to send them to mothers who have properly been trained and taught in the Gospel. And what better training can a young women have then that of serving a mission." This quote has so much meaning to me now. I know that figuring out my sons physical needs will be easy, its the emotional part that I get nervous about. I am so thankful that I got to serve. I know that my mom is right and that the things that I learned on my mission will help me as a mother. Here I am at 30 weeks. I can't beleive I have only 10 more to go. I hope it goes by fast but not to fast because I don't want it creeping up on me. This is the space for out little guy. I somehow have to figure out how I am going to fill it. I have a crib and I just ordered the bedding today. I am not good at decorating so I hope that it will turn out good. Luckly, I have my sister who has taken this road before me. I continue to ask her questions and for her help and she has been more than willing to help out. I am thankful for her.
