Almost finished at the MTC!


We received letters and pictures today!!! Yea! Caylen has loved the MTC and has grown immensely in the three short weeks he has been there. There must be a super incredible spirit there to just envelop him like it did.
His companion is a friend he had on the swim team at his High School a couple of years ago and he really likes him.
He was called to be the district leader and he has really loved each of the elders and sisters in his district. He thinks it is the best district in the MTC.
He wrote each of us in our family long letters--like three pages each. We sure treasure those! I've had friends tell me that we would eventually get letters like this after the "teenage years" and it is great to have a "payday" like this!! They are keeping him busy and he is actually enjoying all the studying and learning about the gospel. He reports that he has some wonderful teachers that have really impacted his life. He leaves to go to Peoria on Tuesday.
