I Believe in Love at First Sight...

Because I have been loving my mother ever since I opened my eyes!


Today was great and most of you reading this would wonder how could Mother's Day be so great when most of us are hundred's of miles away?! The Swapp's are problem solvers but this wasn't even a problem!

Nathan was able to Skype (video chat) from California, Ben from Florida, Sarah and I from Utah and Sami, Rock, Grandma and Papa went over to Mamy's house for a group chat. Well in real life it's hard to get a word in, online it was no different! We all had things to say and Ben and Rock had tons of things they wanted to show off!

Nathan didn't tell us too much. He has about 7 investigators, he's still in his same area- Palo Cedro, has a good companion and he is loving what he's doing. Oh and did I mention he is as handsome as ever?! He certainly reminded us ;) He is feed a lot of "rabbit food" by the members in his area so he spends his extra cash on mystery lego packs at Wal-Mart. He happened to get 2 hippies on one trip and burned them in the backyard. Some things never change.

Ben is marvy. He was hired to make a commercial for an apartment complex in Florida and it was a hit! He picked up a few more jobs because of it! He graduates in January and is excited about everything he is doing. He showed us his make-shift "double shoulder camera rig" among many items he "stole" from Nay's room the last time he visited.

Rocky was cute as ever. A little shy to sing some songs but we got "Tractor, Tractor" out of him by the end of the conversation. And without fail he showed us his eye.

Papa and Grandma made some appearances and updated us on our orders. Quilts, cars, and trucks. We love them so much! It's hard to believe they don't live next door to us anymore because we still see and talk to them just about as much as we used to!

Mama is such a great mom. She taught us that love doesn't have a limit. We really don't miss each other because when we do, we call, text, Skype, email or visit. Usually Mom's get gifts on Mother's Day but I think we all were thankful for the gift of our family that day.
