So another week has packed up it´s bags and headed out. It seems like that is how I always start out my emails, but that is honestly how I feel. I am in the same cyber as one of the hermanas that came with me who is going home in like 2 transfers... I just can´t believe it. Thank heavens I am not a sister missionary because the mission would just go by way too fast. I think God gives the elders 6 months more because He knows that we need them. This past week was another week. It was full of disappointment, but that´s the life sometimes. The little girl that was going to get baptized just got the cold feet and refused to get into the font. It was one of those moments where two 20 year old boys try being really nice and patient with an eight year old girl, but we just had no idea what to do. You know like when Lucy really wants to go with Nordstrom with grandma... Really there isn´t a force in the world that can stop them. Yeah it was pretty much the same thing. Bottom line is that if I have a daughter... I will just have to have a whole lot of patience. Other than that I honestly cant remember much else. I don´t know why, but my memory is just failing me or something. I am sure that once I close the internet I will have a whole flood of memories, but right now nothing is coming to mind. I know it was Adam´s and Ben´s birthday and Cam and Coop and Lucy and Shea are having theirs soon. That is just crazy. You are all just getting to be way too old. They sell some great wooden canes here if you need them. Just hit me up with a quick email and I will send some your way.
I was so happy to hear that all is going well at home. That is exciting that you are opening the pool this week. It seems like you were just closing it, but I gues that is how the time flies. Mom I congratulate you one your decision to fly with dad. That will be the greatest experience of your life. I would relate you to a hard core catholic woman... They are just so stuck in their foolish traditions, that when something new comes their way, they immediately reject it. It is the same thing with flying with dad. You have been catholic for so long and the missionaries have been knocking on your door for so much time and it seems like you have finally been touched by that special something. You now have a date and all you need to do is pray about it and have faith and with out doubt you will make it to that special day. Ha ha that was a great comparison huh? But that´s just how it is.
I love you all and am so happy to know that all is well. Thanks for all the support and the advice and all the great emails. It makes me so happy when I see that i have emails from you. Keep on keepin on. Do work. I love you all
