Dear Jen, Landen and Walker,

Hey, Jen and Landen. I miss you so much. Walker I M-I-S-S Y-O-U T-O-O. He can practice his letters haha. Well, I just want to thank you for being who you were and still are to me, a great sister and brother. Landen you know what I’m going through and it still sucks. Your first 3 days are horrible. They drag on for what seems like an eternity. I’m so grateful for your example these past years and look forward to hanging out with you guys when I get home. I’ll be back before you know it. I hope so anyways haha. I hope you‘re either just having another kid or preggo when I get home so we can go play ball together. Gym is by far my most favorite time of the day. It keeps me sane, well as sane as I come. You better write me back. Okay? Just make a personal promise to for me. Well, Walker I’m excited to hear from you and write you back. Tell your Mom to send me an SD Memory Card of you. Jen, just go buy one, put it on your comp., then paste it on the SD card if you have a card reader. If not then I’ll miss your pictures. Haha jk I love you Jen and Landen and Walker.

Love, Your Brother/Uncle
Elder Walker

First Letter to the Erbs

Dear Jill and Jeremy,

Hey, Sis and Bro, so it has been so hard here so far it sucks. The first day went on forever and ever. So did the second day but today was a little bit faster. So was it this hard for you? Either of you? Well, I just wanted you to know that I love the spirit and I love learning and teaching. It’s insane how much I don’t know. I know doctrinal stuff but that’s about all. I should have studied PMG more, it would have helped so much. Why didn’t you tell me to do that? You guys know more than anyone what I’m going through. I can’t wait for your wise words of wisdom to help me cope with my situation. Well, I have to go to bed so love ya both, miss you guys, can’t wait to see you come pick me up at the airport haha.

Love your brother,
Elder Kevin Walker

Dear Aliyah,

Don’t think I forgot about you. I had so much to tell you that I had to write you your own letter. So Aliyah you have to write me and tell me what is going on in your life and how school is going. You’re beautiful just so you know your gorgeous. You better be there to pick me up when I come home. You’re going to be so big. It’s so weird how old you’re getting. I remember when you were born. Wow, that was a long time ago. Ha! I love you Liyah.

Elder Walker's First Letter to Mom and Dad

Dear Mom and Dad,

Thanks for the candy, you’re right, I love it. The food here is food tho it makes me so full. I think I’ve gained a couple pounds. Haha. Not really. I’m still a stick but the food really is good. I miss home already and the first night here I realized how long 2 years could actually be. It’s been hard these first couple of days. I’ve had about zero sleep and have a pounding headache all the time. Mom you were right I do miss you a ton but I’m gonna have to deal with it. Well I’m running out of time to write so I’ll email you Thursday.

Love

Elder Walker
