View this post on InstagramLast night our youngest son, Josh, opened his mission call from the LDS church. He's going to Rome, Italy!! We are so excited. All five of my sons have served in Europe. In fact, my son Jeremy went to Italy on his mission back in 2000. When Josh read the letter, the room erupted with pure joy. You've got to see this video. He's so excited to learn Italian and have these life-changing experiences as an #LDSMissionary in Italy. It's pretty emotional for Debbie and me because, as we've experienced with our other sons, we send our boy into the world, but that boy never returns. A man comes home. We know Josh will love the people of Rome, and they certainly will love him. #LDS #RomeItalyMission
