Week 60: The Dreaded Weekly Email

Things I love:
  1. The cutest little 4 year old boy told me that at school his teacher had asked him to draw a picture. She gave him a white piece of paper and told him to draw something. When she came back and saw the white paper she asked him what he had drawn. He said that he had drawn a cow eating grass. The teacher asked where the grass was and the little boy said the cow had eaten it. Then the teacher asked where the cow was and the little boy said the cow had gone to the bathroom. HA How did I never think of these things when I was little?!
  2. This week we saw papito in the street and he told us that we had to pass by his house to get some juice! Haha He had just gotten a surgery, he is 86 years old and he wanted to take care of us!! He is too nice.
  3.  I was able to go to a baptism of a girl that we had taught for a while in my last area! She had gone through SO MANY missionaries but we all knew that she knew!! When she bore here testimony at her baptism she said that during the conference one of the speakers had spoken to the investigators of the church and said that getting baptized would be the BEST decision of their life! She said that that was her answer and was baptized 5 days later! Wahhh how grateful I am for conference!

Things I am learning to love:
  1. EEEEEEKKK. This week I slept at the other sisters  house and there is a DISCO TECHO outside of their house that blasts music until 2am. EEEEEK. It’s cool. I don’t need sleep.
  2. Compi and I were sitting in the trufi and our trufi got in an accident. MER. It wasn’t anything major but it was such a waste of time.
  3. A policeman was driving down the street and stopped to whistle at us. WHAT. A policeman?! Por favor!

Week 17 The Dreaded Weekly Email

Things I love: Noche de Hogar or in English, Family Home Evening. We teach a short lesson and then we PLAY GAMES. For all my friends that LOVE games (not, all my friends hate games)BUT I have some new ones!!! And if anyone has any ideas for games with children SEND THEM MY WAY!! My compy does not trust me to protect her. The other night we finished a lesson at 8:20pm . We typically have to be home between   9 and 9:30pm   everynight. Normally I’d just say lets go home… but this night I said, “LETS GO TEACH CLAUS.” He’s getting baptized this Saturday so we have lots of lessons to teach him. My comp looked at me and said it was too dark and too dangerous. WHAT?!?! I could totally protect us!! The elders were with us and looked at my comp and said, “Lets go!”. My comp looked at the elders and said, “All of us together?! YEAH!”…    I started laughing so hard. WHAT?!?! Oh, ok cool. You’ll trust the elders and NOT ME?!?! Let it be known I could totally protect us. ...

Super short this week!!! But enjoy the pics. AND if you want a letter for Christmas SEND ME YOUR ADDRESS and I will send you one. Love you all!!! Things I love: We had an activity in the church and PEOPLE CAME! Normally we can expect maybe 20 people BUT this time we had 90 people come!!!! WAHOOO. We had a “Noche de Cine” – a movie night in the church. I spent ALLLLLL night cooking popcorn. I made over 30 batches of popcorn. WOOP. So you can add that to my new list of talents.   FRESH FRUIT. Alright I may have already wrote about this BUT there is a fruit truck that drives around here and they have SO MUCH FRESH FRUIT. This morning we chased down the fruit truck (because for some reason it couldn’t see two white giants running down the road) and for less than THREE DOLLARS $3$ I got 25 bananas, a papaya, and 8 mangos. WHAT!? Sorry mom, I’m never coming home. I’m staying just for the fruit ;) Things I’m learning to love: OH MY GOSH. The animal drama in the home...

Things I love: This week we visited a family whose family situation is a little rough. The mom is alone with her three kids. They live in a mud house with one room which has their beds, kitchen and everything. They mom began to lose her eyesight about a year ago and can hardly see now. The mom is a member but her kiddos aren't. She asked if we could help her teach her kids. Her one son is SUPER travieso.... or difficult. Everytime we asked if he liked going to church or if he wanted to learn he glared at us and said NO. Every word that left his mouth was NO! I had brought my book of mormon with pictures and I felt like I should share it with him. We began teaching from the book and he began to become interested.... He even said YES! What the! When we ended we asked him if he could end with a prayer and he said YES! What!?!?! Seeing the change in this little kid was a miracle! We helped Rucelvy (our convert) wash a blanket..... haha but it weighed about 50lbs when it was wet! ...
