To Mylee

Mom and Dad might not have wanted this on their blog...but I thought it was too sweet not to share. I know it is VERY hard for them to not be with Andy and the Canty family right now. When my parents first got to Russia, they were told that their family would be blessed more by their being in Russia than if they were at home. That was the first thing that came to my mind when I heard that Mylee was having problems. I felt very strongly, and I know they did too, that Andy and baby Mylee would be blessed by my parents being in Russia on their mission serving the Lord. We are all so grateful for them and their amazing examples. Love you!


Dear Mylee Ryan,
We want to send you the warmest, loving welcome we can possible give to you. We are SO grateful you are here and we do want to be with you to give you kisses. But, we are far away on a mission in Russia, so we just know that you can feel our love as our spirits are connected. We know you have a strong spirit and determination to be in Ryan and Andrea's family and have chosen them for your special mission in this life.
They are goodly parents and you are blessed to be with them. You will also love your sister Hadlee and brother Travis and they anxiously love you back and can hardly wait to bring you home.
So, please grow stronger and stronger and hurry home to them. We pray for this special blessing for you and know that our Heavenly Father hears our prayers and will bless you.
We will soon be able to see you in person and we can hardly wait for that day. But for now, we are teaching so many people who need to know about Jesus and his teachings. You know all about him of course, and your family will help you to remember all you know as you grow up with them. Thanks for choosing them and us.
We love you SO much!!!
Grandma Marsha and Papa John Aland
