PRESIDENT & SISTER CLAYTON'S HOMECOMING

Today we were privileged to attend the Homecoming for President & Sister Clayton. (Taylor's first mission president and his wife.) The chapel was filled to the brim! In between their talks, former missionaries of the California San Diego mission were invited to stand and join in singing the mission song. Nearly 60 percent of the congregation stood and sang. The spirit was so strong! It was easy to imagine Taylor's voice and his smiling face singing with them.

Some of the missionaries who attended the homecoming.

Afterwards we were able to meet President Clayton and even take a picture of him with Jonah for Taylor's "Hump" day!

We also met Elder & Sister Riggs. (The former mission nurse. She has been so kind and helpful.) It was wonderful to be able to hug and thank her in person for all she has done for Taylor.

As we were leaving, we also met Hermana Pendelton (a sister missionary) who served with Taylor and just returned home about 3 weeks ago.

It was an AMAZING day!

ATTICUS.......If you wonder why I "HUSTLE" this is the reason why!

This little angel returned to heaven, 3 days after Taylor's mission farewell address. He was only a little over 4 months old. He and his family hold a very special place in Taylor's heart. The night before Taylor left to serve his mission, Atticus' momma brought over a special note for Taylor. She asked that Taylor "HUSTLE" in bringing the message of the true church and eternal families while on his mission. This note and her terminology brought both a smile and a tear to Taylor. Not only does Taylor know how much she loves this little boy and longs to hold him, but he knows, she knows the gospel is true! Taylor took this charge very seriously and plans to dedicate himself to "HUSTLING" to share the gospel throughout not only his mission, but his entire life - for Atticus...and for his momma.
