Hello! Tori here! I'm taking over for dear Mary who is busy busy with school! We are sorry about slacking the last couple of months with posting Debs emails. If you have not been receiving them and would like to, please leave a comment w/your email address. If you would like to read her old emails between this email and the last one that we posted, comment with your email address and I will forward them to you. Thanks for supporting our sister! We love her dearly and couldn't be more proud! She's been doing amazing and will finish off the last 2 months with just as much energy and enthusiasm! 

Dear Family- 

I AM SO EXCITED FOR WILL!!! YAY!!!!!!! Just think, in a little over 2 years when you get back we can just chat it up in Spanish and no one will know what are are saying... MUAHAHAHAHAHA!! :) My heart is just so overcome with joy! I just want to shout it from the roof tops! The Lord has blessed our family in so many ways- I am so thankful to Him!!! 

This past Saturday was so great!!! As I am sure it was with all of you. Hermana Stroud and I headed back to good ol' Ottumwa to see Zeila get baptized! It was so awesome to see her in white! And in a couple of weeks she is going to go do baptisms in the Temple and I will be going to that too! :) YAY!!! Isn't this work so awesome!! There is nothing better than seeing people really come unto Christ and take upon His name!! Zeila was just beaming!! It was so cool!! Then, that night at about 10:20 President Jergensen called me and... I didnt think that I was in trouble or anything... It is just that President Jergensen is a very busy man and getting a phone call from him is just a very big deal. He started out by saying, "HELLO HERMANA WADSWORTH!! How are you doing?" I said, "Good President, how are you?". "I am good," he said, "so I just got off the phone with you Mom. She said that your brother got his mission call, but I am sad to say, it is not here in the Iowa Des Moines mission." I said, "OH man!! That is a bummer!! Where is he going?!" President then said, "well your mom said that if you want you can just wait until Monday when you email to find out OR I can tell you, but you are patient so would you like to wait till Monday?"... "WHAT?!? NO NO NO!! This is one thing I cannot be patient with, President!!" He then laughed at me and then proceeded to tell me where Will is going!!! AHH!!!!! WHAT AN AMAZING DAY SATURDAY WAS AND IT JUST WARMED ME UP!!!!! Such exciting news! I already looked to see when Chicuahua is... not tooooo shabby! It would not surprise me if you go right up to the New Mexico/Texas boarder!! YAY!!! I am so excited!!! Missions are the best thing EVER!!!!!! I love it!!! I think EVERYONE who can should go on a mission!! 

I am sorry that this email is going to be so short, but I wanted you to know how I took the whole thing... and how great the Lord is!! He really does bless us and know what our needs are!! I know that Jesus Christ lives and loves us!! I know that the Book of Mormon is true!! I know that through the Atonement of Jesus Christ we will all be saved after all that we can do! That when we keep the commandments the Lord will bless us!!! I love you all so much!!! I am so lucky yo have a family like you!!!  

FAMILIES ARE FOREVER!!!!! 

LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!! XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO 

Have a great week!!!
