IT CAME, IT CAME!!!!!!!!!

IT CAME!!!!!!!! Thursday Feb. 9th my mission call came! Wednesday on our way home from Utah I was trying not to get excited that it could be there when we got home! But when we got home and it wasn't there I was kinda disappointed! So Thursday all day while I was babysitting I was wanting to call my mom and ask her if it came just cause I couldn't take any more waiting and not knowing! I told my mom not to call me and tell me it came when it did cause I didn't want to be waiting for time to go by so I could go home and open it! But I couldn't do it so about 3:30 I called my mom and asked her and she said, "Are you going to put make-up on?" I freaked out and started to squeal! The kids I was babysitting looked at me like I was so weird, well I kinda was at that point! I was so excited and now I had to wait! So we played for a little and then Lincoln and I started watching funny videos online to pass the time away! Their dad came home and I went home and did my make-up cause you know I can't have pictures taken without make-up on! HA! Well that didn't take long at all and then there was more waiting cause my aunt couldn't get there till about 6:20! I kept walking back and forth being very impatient! Everyone got there and we called my sister's and brother and then I opened it!
This is what I got to look at while I waited! Not that fun! I wanted to open it up right then and there!
 This was while we were waiting for the phone calls to be made!
 I asked if everyone was there and could hear me and Amy (on the phone) was like JUST OPEN IT!!!!!!
 I was so excited to see where I was going.
 Not 10 words into it I started to cry! I felt so overwhelmed with the Spirit and so happy that it's finally here and so real, really happening! I kept telling myself I need to compose myself so I could finish reading and see where I was going! While I was trying to compose myself I looked down a little and saw where I was going before I read it! HA! That helped me get myself together cause excitement took over! YAY!
 I am going to Cleveland Ohio and am speaking English! YAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!! I was so excited all I could do was squeal! Everyone was laughing at me! Oh my gosh it's so real now! I can't wait to leave and serve the Lord! I never thought that I would be going on a mission but here I am with the call in hand and super excited to go and spread the Gospel!
