Hello to everyone,
Received a call yesterday from Camille's mission mom, Sorella Wolfgren.  She sounds like a wonderful person.  She called to say that Camille arrived just fine.  She said p-days are on Wednesdays so we won't hear from her till next week.  Also told me that she was going to be sent to Modena, Italy.  Home of the famous tenor Luciano Pavarotti, balsamic vinegar, Mazerratis and Ferraris.  IT's a beautiful city, she said.  But what city in Italy wouldn't be??  She went on to thank us for sending such a wonderful young lady and how prepared and strong Camille is.  She said, "we've only been around her for a few hours, but the mission President and I have fallen in love with her".  Must be her contagious laugh!!  Almost made me cry because we love her so much and are so excited.  Who would have thought that there would be so much excitement on our parts as parents with our two children out serving??  It is just awesome.  Here is her address for the next 16 months.  Long ago two stamps would have worked but I went on line today to check postage and it said for 1 ounce it was $1.82.  YIKES!!  I am gonig to go to the post office and check that personally.  Sounds kind of high.
I will keep you all posted.  Thanks for your prayers.
Love,
Rosalee
