Mission countdown, by the numbers......

People are asking about Madison and the homecoming date. So here it is by the numbers........
21= # of days till Hermana Moffat is home. Actually 20, now that its tomorrow as I finally post this. Seriously can't wait. Look at the chain, kind of looking slim.(see below)
5 = # of  weeks since anything was posted on her blog. I wasn't actually AWOL, you can read it all now, feel free!
31= # of new missionaries recently assigned to the Chicago mission.
2 = # number of missions that will exist in the Chicago area, in July.
9 = # total companions of Hermana Moffat
4 = # of  areas served by Hermana Moffat
2= # of parent anxious to see that great daughter of ours. Bring it on!
Too many to count - people and things she loves from Chicago! We feel that she has been blessed by her mission service as we have too. Missions bless families, true story. I recommend it! We will see you very shortly, our dear, Hermana Madison Moffat. Letters are welcome up till the last day,

Lonely 21 links, and thats a good thing!

We have news!!!

79 links to the chain left!!! So excited

Madison has received her release date!! She will return on April 3rd.  We are so excited.  Therefore we have made a chain to signify how many days till she returns. I know, I know.  I can't help myself.   Enjoy a few memories in pictures......

Special Mission Friends

Words are not adequate to share what Madison's mission has meant to us.  We love the girl that left us those many months ago and are honored to welcome back our missionary, in 89 more days, who has served well.  She looks lit up to me.  I guess that's what serving will do for you.  I saw a similar smile on the faces of her brothers as they finished the last few months of their missions.  Thanks for all of the letters and support and the example you have set.  

She will spend her last two transfers in West Dundee, Ill.  Lucky them!!!
