Jacob

Isn't he handsome! I really miss this boy. He had a good birthday, thanks to all who sent a card. I am beyond excited to skype with him on Mother's Day. It is their fall in Argentina right now, so as we start to wear shorts they start wearing their sweaters. He seems to like it better than the miserable hot summers, although he says it is harder getting out of bed in the morning. In Argentina they do not have air conditioning for the summer or central heating for the winter, so mornings can be very cold in the apartments. Missionaries are not getting their Visas to come into Argentina. Right now the mission is short 40 missionaries that should have arrived in the last several months, but are now serving somewhere in the states waiting for their visas. Jacob's companion is an 18 year old serving a mini mission (a learning, training experience for young men).
