Hey Mom,
Trek looks like super fun. I tried to not think
too much about Clayton this past week, especially yesterday. I had to give a
talk (they told us about it at 9 the night before...) Haha. I didn’t really
want to talk about Clayton. However, later at night I was writing in my journal
and my companion had gone to bed. I was listening to MoTab and Homeward Bound
came on. I just let myself think back to
6 years ago and that whole experience. I cried to myself about it all. It is still hard for me and I feel like he is
always going to seem like the older brother to me, even though I now have 4
more years than he did. Thinking about him last night really helped me think
about how much I want to help families here. In Mexico almost all the families are separated
and just aren’t strong. So many single moms and dads drinking in the streets
and doing drugs. I am so grateful for the family I have and the Gospel in our
lives.
I hope you have a fun 4th of July. I love the 4th. I am so glad this is the last
4th I have to miss!
I don’t hear anything about what is going on in
the news. Gay marriage...bueno. well that much closer to Jesucristo
coming.
Love you mom. You are the best. I miss you tons,
and even more today when trying to make decisions on a suit. Don’t worry. It’s good looking.
Love you!
-Elder Thomas
