Phone call home!

Hi blog friends, this is Sorella Soh's mom. I got to talk to her on the phone yesterday for a bit from the SLC airport. She had told me earlier she wasn't going to call, because she is trying so hard to keep the mission rules, but her branch president told her that not only is it okay, it's encouraged for them to call. So yay!

It was funny, though, because we've communicated so well via email and snail mail that there wasn't a whole lot to say. You'd think after nine weeks we'd run out of time, but we actually ran out of stuff to talk about. Still, it was great to hear her voice and the enthusiasm she has for her mission.

She said she left Provo at like 6 am and would arrive in Milan Wednesday morning about 10 - that's a LONG flight! She's traveling with two of the elders from the MTC. From what she's been told they'll pick them up at the airport and then take them into Milan for some sightseeing and to start talking to real Italians! I hope to get an email or something from the Mission President letting me know she's arrived safely and if/when I do I'll post it here.

But - she's in Italy!! Thanks to everyone for the prayers!
