Moment of Expertise

We heard from Parker today, as it is P-day in the MTC for him.

It has happened that in many areas of his life, he has been quite knowledgeable in many areas:

-Unicycle
-Football
-Soccer
-Frisbee
-Sledding
-Long boarding
-Bike riding
-Mario Kart or other video games
-Kite flying
-Paper folding
-Medical Technician

There are more, but I can't think of them right now.  And since I am trying to watch Duck Dynasty at the same time as I am writing this, I am going to let that go.

Today, Parker informed us that he has become a wonderful, play-making and beloved volleyball player there at the MTC.  He even has been given nicknames.  Which I don't remember what they are, but that's okay, because I do have them documented in an email somewhere.

It just cracked me up, because he just really has the focus of a mosquito.  Maybe not that good.

He did say that he has been made district leader.  Which is something that someone with authority actually decided, so that's good.  He said that it's a lot like being a regular missionary, except he has to be a bit bossier.  (Not new!!!)

Anyway.  It was just fun to hear from him.  You may be taking this as a post with a negative spin, but it isn't.  I am just amused.  It honestly cracks me up, and I love that about him!

He will also be able to add "speaking Russian" to his list of exotic knowledge.
