Hang in there my brother. We have sent three missionaries out into the field and it never gets easier. We missed each of them while they were out serving. Our youngest has 9 more months. But as my mom once told me from personal experiences, it’s better to cry tears of joy that your child has chosen to go serve the Lord versus crying that your child chose not to serve at all. It will get better and before you know it, you’ll be wonder what to talk about for two hours every Monday. Go Cougs!
