Bu Xing!!
Steve left this morning and my sister graciously took him to the airport. Somehow, 3 kids in a compact car just doesn't leave much room for luggage. He forgot a very important doohickey, so we piled in to race it to him at the airport before his plane took off. No problem.I so got pulled over for speeding. Dang it!! But as the officer was writing up my ticket, I couldn't help but think he looked awfully familiar. When he came back to my window, I asked him if he was Elder F., and didn't he serve a mission in Taiwan with me? Ok, so he didn't remember me. But apparently a little connection goes a long way. He changed the ticket to a warning, then instructed me sternly to slow down. In Chinese.
Yet another blessing for serving a mission!!

I once got saved from a ticket when my daughter reccognized the cop as the father of her play mate! Yep, knowing someone always helps! Lol

How funny! It sounds like he had a sense of humor which means your day was better for not getting the ticket! LOL! :D

Becca, how wonderful. Sorry you had to go all the way to the airport. One time my husband took both sets of our keys to the airport. Luckily, I realized it before his plane took off. Now I can't qite remember how I got the keys from the airport. I'll have to ask him.
I had forgotten that you did your mission in Taiwan. Do you know we are adopting our baby boy from Taiwan?

Wow, lucky you. I don't think they CAN change it to a warning here once they started writing the ticket.
