with love. . .

last week, my good friend allison went into the missionary training center here in provo (right, the same allison from we are women).  she'll be serving in nashville for the next year and a half, and i am so proud of her decision to serve!  she's been such a great example to me for the last semester.  she was a friend when i needed one so badly - a friend in every reciprocal definition of the word.  i admire her strength, her courage, and her trust in God.  before she entered the mtc, i visited her and her mother at earthfruits yogurt (yummy stuff, that!).

i love this gal!  i can't wait to hear all her incredible experiences.  she's the kind of person that can't help but change the world everywhere she goes.  someday, i expect to glance at the morning paper and see her name across the front.

i sent her a little package today and was pretty excited about it.  i love sending people packages! and getting them, for that matter - it's just about the best feeling in the world.  she asked for a very specific shirt {which i failed to find and ended up sending a different color than instructed because of sizing. . .issues}.  she's had a cold, so with the shirt {i had to remind her what i hippie i am} i sent some natural throat drops.  aaaaand what's a package without chocolate, right??  so, of course i included a little truffle.

i hope she decides brown is as good as black!
