Elder Wilcox is thankful for the letters hes received. He got a letter almost everyday of the week last week. He said it has been a huge help to have everyone supporting him and his decision to serve a mission. In his words, He is stoked he has made lots of good friends through the years. I am happy he has too. We are very blessed.
He tasted frog legs and said it tasted just like chicken. I didn't know frogs had any meat on their legs. I guess they do.
Mission life is getting easier. He doesn't seem to be missing home as much. This makes me happy. I miss him enough to make up for all of his home sickness:) He realizes the more he devotes himself to the Lord's work, the better he has felt an d the greater the comfort.
We miss him at home. But, I have a strong feeling he is doing ok. I am proud of him and I thank my Heavenly Father for his obedience.

Tomorrow is p-day for my elder. I can't wait to hear from him. Mondays have become my favorite day of the week. I enjoy being still for the moment that I read his letters. I miss him lots, but I also know he is doing good. He will bless many.

First Week in Texas
March 1, 2013
Elder Wilcox has reported cockroaches in his apartment. He said they are not as big as the ones in the movies. His companion is Elder Erickson, he is from a small town in Utah. He was also a wrestler. The majority of people in Waco are Baptist. He said they are really nice to the missionaries.
-One regret he has is that he feels like he didn't spend enough time with family . He may not have liked fishing or hunting but knows now that it would've been a great way to spend time with his dad and family, instead of playing x-box or sleeping.
-He loves his bike. Thank you Uncle Scott:) He feels like he is driving a Porsche.
-His p-day (preparation day) the day he does laundry, grocery shopping, and writing letters is on Mondays. I will try to be better at updating sooner.
-I miss him tons, but am proud of him. I enjoy creating fun packages and writing to him.
