Two years ago today- February 20th.
I left my family, my best friend dropped me off, and I put my phone in the mailbox for the next 18 months.
Little did I know the impact these people would have on my life.
Little did I know that serving a mission blessed me with the greatest friends I could ask for.
I never thought in a million years that I would make friends from a mission.
The other day, my friend Sadie, mentioned: Remember when you were scared to go on a mission because you didn't want to leave your friends behind? Now you have a lot more."
I was talking with my MTC companion who said it perfectly: "I was blindsided by the friendships I made. I never thought that would happen."
Those 12 days in the MTC were so great.
I laughed with these people, cried with them, shared fears, played pranks, and grew with them.
Now we are all home.
It's so good.
My life is forever changed.
