Just once...

Just once, I'd like to get mail for me. Every time I go out to the mailbox, it's mail for my parents. Bills, mostly. Advertisements, too. There are no letters for me. With as many pen pals that I have, you'd think I'd get more mail.

I liked it when I would get mail at my apartment. Yes, even the bills. And, yes, even the advertisements. They were all addressed to me. It's like the messages on my answering machine. They were all for me. Now when the phone rings, it's mostly for me, but I still get people from the ward or people who don't know that my parents are away, calling.

I understand that people call for my parents. And I understand that bills and advertisements and packages have to come for my parents. But just once, I'd like something for me...

I think getting my mission call in the mail is going to be extra, extra special. I mean, it is going to have my name. Correct? It's already special for that reason. And it most likely won't say "Mrs." --- I periodically get mail that says that. I don't know why! (I think they're stupid.)

It will tell me where I'm going and when I'm leaving. That will be special. And it will be from the Presidency of the Church. THAT will be special.
