To my dearest friend and greatest treasure,
As I type this you are hopefully sleeping soundly at your last night in the MTC, ever. Tomorrow you fly out to Africa, and begin a two year journey of a lifetime, and then some. You also turned the ripe old age of twenty last Saturday and I wasn't able to celebrate it with you. I'm glad though, because I wouldn't want you anywhere else but right where you are.
Trev, I am so unbelievably proud of you. You conquered every single obstacle life threw at you, and remained true to your personal goal. You never let a nay sayer sway you, and you never lost total sight of who you are, and what you are capable of. You passed so many milestones, and broke so many limits..I'm sure God is already planning a whirl wind of experiences for you. If there is any missionary out there who can handle it, it's you my brother. And I know you know it, and I know everyone else knows it. You are the strength so many of us needed. And I am sure the strength so many of those Africans need. I know you will move mountains.
Honestly, there is nothing better then getting a letter from trevasaurus. You bare your testimony of the scriptures and of the living God so honestly and profoundly; A person must be thought a fool to not believe a word you say. You haven't lost sight of the true Trev, and you so earnestly question how my life is going spiritually and otherwise. I love them! I love to hear from you! And I love to laugh out loud each time i read what you have to say. Though you should know these laughs are soon followed by tears. Tears of pride and tears from missing such a dear friend. I wouldn't have it any other way. :)
Fat baby, I hope your twentieth year brings you so many incredible experiences and changes your life for the better. I hope you will be able to see the hand of God in all of your endeavours, and feel the unlimited love flowing to you from each of your friends and family. It will always be there. I also hope that in these short two years we are apart, you never once question my thoughts and love for you. And I hope you always repeat to yourself, "I am not a missionary douche" for the sake of Charlie and I. ;)
In your twentieth year, I hope you are brave. I hope you are still. I hope you are happy. I hope you are fulfilled. I hope you know peace. and I hope you never stop laughing. ( if you find yourself with a day that just can't bring laughter.. just think of your mom doing her "special" dance and yelling, "how do you like me know?!!?" haha :) Never loose sight of your goals Trevster. And never forget you are loved.
Happy Birthday to my best friend, my brother, and my hero. I'll love you forever boy.
Love,
Kirst.
