Dearest Jessie,
I am so happy right now. Talking to you for that little while was amazing. It makes all of this stress much more bearable. Your voice was the prettiest thing I have heard since I left you. I will not be crying myself to sleep this night.
One of my fellow privates is currently borrowing my Book of Mormon. he is from West Valley and hasn't served a mission yet. He said he wasn't planning on serving, but after this he said he might. I feel like I am providing a good example of how happy a life can be after serving a mission.
Did I tell you that they shaved my head nearly bald? They used clippers with no guard on it at all and they probably spent 40 seconds shaving my whole head. They are very fast.
We spent almost all day getting our financial paper work organized today. Thank you again for faxing that in so quickly. Our money will be direct deposited into U.C.C.U. Also, good news! (big news, big news from London). Since you are now living in California we (or you) will be getting over $1000 a month for housing costs. It was only around $700 for Utah.
Grandpa Frogley gave me his watch. His Swiss Army knife watch that he actually wore for a while. It's so nice to know what time it is. It was locked up for the first couple days so when I finally got it, it sure was nice.
Well, in closing, I say again that your voice was a beam of sunlight on my cloudy day. I love you so much and pray that the Lord will watch over and keep you and the girls safe and protected.
Love-Brad
P.S. We got our dog tags today.
