Well I am in.  The first day was awesome.  I met my companions.  I have two [companions].  Elder Kindred and Elder Parks.  There is my orange dork dot.  It's called that for who knows reason.  Well I feel the spirit.  It's calm and gentle and makes me feel like I can accomplish anything today.  I know that what I am doing is the right thing.  Mom cried a bit and so did dad.  Well he was teary-eyed mostly.  But I know I am supposed to be here.
