6 Days!!

I've been working on my papers for a couple weeks now. When Brett got his call about a week and a half ago, I was so anxious for my own. Last Sunday, I had my interview with Stake President Stewart and he told me I'd get my mission call in about 2 1/2 weeks. So I've been preparing myself for that timeline. Then tonight, Bishop Larson called. He said he checked online and my call has been assigned and is in the mail, and I should get it this week. Brett's hoping it will come Monday, but we're planning on Thursday.
I'm so excited just to know when and where. For the past ten years, I've thought I'd serve a mission and where was always the exciting mystery. Well, in a few days, the mystery will be solved and I'll be so happy no matter where I go, whether it's Okinawa, Japan or Okaboji, Iowa.
Brett and I are kinda hoping I get called to the Philippines so we can come home and speak Tagalog together. Our own secret language. But there are so many places I would love to go, and so many people I would love to teach.
Just 6 more days and we'll know...!!!!!
