This is my brother-in-law!
He might look like an ordinary young man! He might be an ordinary young man but he has definitely got a few things on me!
This past week there were so many hearts breaking as they watched their loved ones leave in big white airplanes from Idaho to prepare for there departure to Iraq! So many said farewell to sons, daughters, husbands, wives, brothers, sisters, friends, and neighbors! I saw and heard of so many people affected by their loved ones leaving them for a while!
My brother-in-law Josh was one of those that left in a big white airplane! We are so proud of him. Although we could not be there to say goodbye in person it was nice to talk over the phone for a few minutes! He is strong and he is ready to serve his country! Not only will he serve his country but he will serve his Heavenly Father and when he comes back in a year he will serve his Heavenly Father for another two years (as his mission was put off after getting his call and everything)!
My mother-in-law said when talking to her on Tuesday, the day Josh left, it is so much different from the feelings of sending her son on a mission! She is strong though. The whole family is strong and everyone could not be prouder of him!
This is my brother-in-law, as well!!!
Like I said, he might be an ordinary young man, but, he is an ordinary young man who knows a few things about sacrifice!
Thank you Josh for serving your country, your God, and your family! I am proud to count you as a brother! We love you! We will see you in a year! Be safe!
