It has arrived!

It took a full week, but Will's Suit-in-a-Box has landed! I have evidence from the Canada Post tracking system that it has arrived and been delivered. As to the condition of a suit that has been stuffed in a box, that I cannot attest to. I hope to know what fees Will was charged to pick it up for future reference. Let's hope for another letter from Elder Young with news of the end of this fantastic mission story!

I love how the story of the suit will always be part of our family culture! The moment it happened, I knew it was destined to become the first of our missionary legends, as we tell it over and over. It will be  a warning to future missionaries to keep their goals in sight lest they forget their purpose and lose their way! Oh, yes, this will be a great cautionary tale! A Young family idiom is born! "We'll, isn't that just a Suit-in-a-Box!",  we'll say as we nod in agreement.

addendum:

I now have photographic evidence of its' arrival and Will has at least been in the same room as the Suit-in-a-Box!



Can you see it! Behind Will on the ledge! The infamous Forgotten Suit! I stuffed it with Hi-Chews Candies instead of packing peanuts! He IS allergic!
