Elder and Sister Lombardi

Monday morning was probably the hardest thing I have ever done. Saying goodbye to my parents for 18 months! I can't believe this day has finally arrived. They are officially missionaries in Swaziland. It is so hard not having them here with me and not being able to be with them and hug them but I know they are where they are supposed to be. The people in Swaziland are truly blessed to have them in their lives. They are going to be the most amazing missionaries. They have wanted to serve a mission for as long as I can remember and as much as I didn't want them to go I am glad they are accomplishing their dream and serving the Lord. Their love for the gospel is so strong. There is so much more I want to share about how amazing my parents are but I'm not good with words and I don't know how to express my feelings. I just want my parents to know how much I love them and how they have blessed my life. You truly are the best parents anyone could ask for and I'm so blessed to be your daughter. You are amazing examples to me! You have taught me so much about the gospel and I am so thankful to have it in my life. Thank you for all you do! I love you more than you will ever know!!! Good luck in Swaziland!
