Yeah I
remember exactly how that was those last weeks of school. The teachers don't
want to give assignments because they know that no one will do them, and the
kids just want to get out of there and play so it’s a tough time. From what Amanda says the teachers want the
break just as much as the students want it!
But
just so you know, I was remembering that it was Scott's and Jeff's Birthday!! But just so you know HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! I know it doesn't mean much from a
computer screen but maybe in the future I can really tell you happy birthday
and buy you something nice.
Well it
sounds like the world is running around just as crazy as we are. Lacrosse is going great and also Megan is
singing, plus Jared is coming home soon. Just so you know I remember when we were in
the MTC together and we would hang out at night! Man time flies the older that you get huh?
Well
this last week we had a baptism of Samuel
Reyes. It was actually quite
unexpected but we pulled it off and all of them (including the family)
were excited for it. The only problem is
the family now. We're working hard
with them so that they can also be baptized. But it was really great! Like
usual not many people came out to the baptism (just the normal people) but I
really feel that deep down we are helping. It’s hard to see the huge results here. The process of missionary work is a small seed
that we are planting in the people that we teach and baptize and sadly we
aren't usually around to enjoy the fruit that it brings to their lives and the
lives of the people to come. But
just so that everyone knows it’s probably the most rewarding thing that I’ve
done or on the top 3 of things I’ve ever done in my entire life. Not because it’s nice all day and people come
up to us and want to be taught, but because it’s hard work and I’m
doing it to show God how much I appreciate the blessing that I have.
It’s
great getting wet though. I bet not many
people can say that they have gotten soaking wet in their church clothes
like literally as if I would have jumped in a pool. It happens quite frequently here. Hurricane
season started!
I look
skinny and brown? haha I don't know
about the skinny part but I definitely am more brown. And like I said the last time I can see
why Eric came home with a neck line. I have a really bad one too - plus my arms. We won't even go there. hahah
But I
love it all. The mission, the people, the rain and everything. It’s
hard. But it’s worth it.
