Missing My Buds!

Me, Jackson, Mary and Megan at Jackson's farewell

Today was a really hard day today. Jackson left on Wednesday, Logan has been out for a month, Mary is home in Texas, Shaylee is on her mission and it is lonely by myself.

I got another job working for BYU catering. I work at the Morris Center cafeteria feeding breakfast to the EFY kids. Tuesday was the worst, I hated every minute of it. Then it got better as the week progressed. Today I just felt really lonely and I couldn't really talk to anyone.

We went to a babyshower for Gemina, and I just felt so empty inside even with all of my family gathered around me. I don't know what it is, but I am having a really hard time having all of my friends leave me and being by myself. I don't like it. I hate change and sometimes I take the selfish approach and wish that my friends would just come home. But I know that they need to be out on their missions teaching the word of God. I also know that if I lean on my Savior then he will help me through this hard time in my life.

I am really excited fro my friends and I can't wait to hear all of their stories, but at the moment it is really hard to not have them here with me. I get to see Mar in July one more time before she enters the MTC and then it might not be for a while depending on what I do that I will be able to see her again.

I love my friends and I am so grateful for the friendship and example that they have given me.

Love,
