Greetings!  My name is Nancy and I am Scott's mom. While Scott is away gallivanting about South Korea, his sister Lindsay and I will be keeping this blog for him.  Mostly it will contain his letters, emails, and pictures but I might throw my own thoughts in once in awhile and I bet Lindsay will too... 

Scott is serving a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in Seoul, South Korea.  He entered the Missionary Training Center in Provo Utah yesterday.  This was such a bittersweet experience.  Like so many things in the church, this process is almost engineered.  We pulled up to our spot on the curb and got out of the car.  We were greeted by a delightful missionary just a few weeks Scott's senior.  I hugged and kissed my little man for the last time as did Lance.  Scott's new best friend asked him if he had his cell phone or keys or anything else that he should leave behind in his pockets.  Scott said no and he was gone...  I watched him walk away and felt like a portion of my soul was walking away with him.  He was off on a fabulous adventure, the adventure of a life time. 

He has been given strict instructions to remain safe and to be a good communicator.  Let's all keep our fingers crossed that he does just that.  =)
