My good ol fam
So it's been a quick fast primero month!!! crazy... time truly does fly by at this place. the days are very very long but the weeks go by quickly! you better not show up here mom or they will call security on you... haha and that would be ugly. plus all my district thinks your crazy enough.. haha jk. so every sunday the whole zone has to prepare a talk in spanish and you don't know who will talk til they call you in sacrament to come up. usually they call on the district thats closest to leaving the mtc. but for some reason the branch president called up hermana hobbs. so i gave my talk half in spanish half in english cause i was nervous by the end of the talk and plus i had a quote that i was NOT about to translate in spanish.. haha it was one they gave us on the first day here by henry b. eyring called the disciple of christ. ya'll should look it up! its a very powerful quote! and all of our talks were based around diligence and hard work! so i should be safe the rest of my time here!
and thank you all for the letters. now i feel complete that every single one of you has written me. keep them coming cause its like christmas! we all stand out by the mail room waiting for our district leader to get the mail for us.. it's probably a funny sight! and yes i am feeling much much better.. my throat is still being weird but its bearable. im so excited for sundays! they really are the best days on top of p days! every sunday we practice a song we're going to sing at the devotional on tuesdays with the mtc choir... we sang be still my soul two weeks ago and then jesus once of humble birth. We're thinking we're singing we thank thee oh god for a prophet this tuesday cause our teacher heard from some others that he's coming to speak to us!!!! that would be amazing... we already have amazing speakers but the prophet.. oh i sure hope so. tomorrow we're teaching the first lession in spanish!!! scary i know... but the language is alright! im actually grateful for senior graves over at fremont cause that really has helped me a bit!its not too bad.. im able to say my prayers in spanish. and wednesdays and thursdays as a district we speak strictly spanish! well i love you all and hope you are doing great! it sounds like you are. im so grateful for my wonderful family that gives me strength each day! i encourage you to read as a family more in the book of mormon. its amazing how it comes alive! adios!!!!!
