First I will explain the photos. Yes, that is Kodren holding a chicken. And there is a sister holding the dog that tried to eat the chicken that found its way into the yard they were working on for service. They saved the chicken and returned it to its proper yard. The next photo is the adornments on the back part of Elder Egbert's name tag. I find it rather sweet that the two stickers represent his siblings. That makes me happy. By the way, the cow's name is Bertha. The third photo is one of the elders in his district who pretended to crash on Kodren's bed because he was so exhausted. The other elders helped to portray just how tired he really was...The photo of the yard sign is self-explanatory of you know Kodren at all. The final two pictures are some of the missionaries in his current area that have become close friends. One of the sisters is getting transferred and so they wanted to get a photo together. Yes, Elder Egbert and Elder Hunt are wearing LuLuRoe leggings. There was someone in one of Kodren's ward that was a dealer and gave the elders the remnants and the elders love them because they really protect their legs. I have no more to say about that.
He is having a great time and is as happy as ever. He loves his mission president, President Hammon and really enjoys the role playing activities that Sister Hammon does with the missionaries while they are waiting to meet with President Hammon. He thinks those are super valuable. He continues to beat himself up, just as though he were at home. He smacked his face while riding his bike and scratched up his hands on rosebushes while proving service for a local cemetery. Some things never change.
He is teaching a half a dozen great people and learning more each day. I am grateful to see that he is learning as much from those he is teaching as he is offering to them. I appreciate that he is keeping his mind and his heart open and loving everyone that he comes in contact with, I could not be more proud.
