Letter to Ipson's from Elder Wheaden

November 29, 2011

Dear Sister Ipson,
Thank you SO MUCH for having such a great son.  I love him so much.  He is a great missionary who is definitely lead by the Spirit.  Thank you also for the turkey and stuffing, and potatoes, and just everything.  I really loved helping Elder Ipson make the Thanksgiving dinner.  He is a great cook, you must have taught him well.  Our investigators also loved it.  I don't think they had ever seen a Thanksgiving dinner before!  Especially one as nice as the one you gave us.  Elder Ipson talks about you, your husband, his brother and sister a lot.  I hope your husband is enjoying his Challenger  :)  We see one every once in a while here and Elder Ipson drools a little thinking of the one that is back home.  We both wish we could have one as a mission car!  We'd probably make it earlier to appointments.  Anyway, thank you for supporting your son in serving a mission, his example and influence in this mission is very appreciated.  He's a spiritual Giant, he's fun, and he's an awesome missionary.

Love,
Elder Wheaden

P.S.  Also thank you very much for the Christmas tree and the decorations! 
Our apartment really feels good!
