We got an email from Sister Wright!!! (We actually received it yesterday, but since I posted so much already, I thought I would suprise everyone and share today.)
Our missionary was excited to be wearing her tag over her heart and said everyone at the MTC is really nice and the MTC already has her heart. She is ready to do her best. (Would we expect anything different?? Of course not!) She doesn't know much about her companion yet, but her name is Sister Hannah Robinson, they hugged and Sister Wright in true fashion, already loves her! She was happy to have gotten the bottom bunk in her room! Haha
Within the first hour of being in the MTC she was already in French lessons and her teacher didn't speak one word of English, but with the gift of tongues comes understanding and Sister Wright said she understood everything she was trying to say.
You wouldn't believe how excited we were to hear from her!! It seems as though EVERYTHING reminds us of Mickey and we are constantly praying for her. She is in our thoughts and guess what?? With some adjustments, we all survived the first night!! It's still hard to have one of the members of our household missing, but we are excited to continually hear from her and follow along on her adventure of being a missionary - but even moreso, follow the adventure of the growth of her testimony.
A BIG THANK YOU to so many of you who have checked in with us to see how our family is coping. We feel so blessed that Sister Wright is being supported by so many and grateful that we are in your thoughts as well!
Lots of love!
