Elder Pinsent left on September 4th for the MTC. He will be serving our Heavenly Father and His children in Minneapolis, Minnesota, for the next two years.
We're not exactly a touchy feely family, and I feel a little like I barely know Haig anymore. It's taken me a few days to get this up here, because I have mixed feelings about it. I'm glad he's out there and I'm proud of him. I feel like I'll come to know and understand him more in these next two years, than I have in the last two years. I know he'll learn so much, and grow so much. I know he has a strong testimony, and the capability to influence the people around him. I know he'll serve well, and that the people of Minnesota will be happy to have him with them. As I did when I left home, I hope he comes home with a greater appreciation for family and for his parents. I hope he understands how much we all love him here, and that we are his support group and his cheering squad. I don't know if he did know that leaving this week, but as Eric and I talked this week about his mission experiences, I felt calm and assured that Haig will become a great man from this experience.
