Letter, 12/30

Dearest family, I really had a tough time getting on the computers today so i have very little time :P anyway, I love hearing how wonderful christmas went, super glad it all was fun and family time and that you all felt the spirit of christmas. :D i printed off the email you sent, so i'll possibly just write a big letter and you can type it into the blog. :)


i did indeed hear about aubrey coming over, she had a wonderful time and i'm thrilled to hear you all enjoyed having her there as well. :)
christmas square sounds like it was a blast :) i do hope it will be there when i get back, i'm going through jesus the christ and several of the other books i'm allowed as well as the scriptures, just about finished with helaman, lol i started when i got here. lol sooo much study time, either language study, preparing lessons, or putting my lesson into the few words that i can actually speak. That is definitely the hard part, figuring out how to say what i want to say. and then making it even more basic so that i can actually say the message of what i want to share. we have three investigators right now, roberto with a wife and son, jose with a wife and two sons, and josue who is 22 single with background in utah. and keeping them straight, prepared for and praying about all of them individually is ridiculously hard, keeps my mind spining all the time. i definitely understand how the mission can keep your mind off being homesick. as long as you keep working, you never have time for personal lonely thoughts. it definitely makes things nice, when my thoughts as i fall asleep are how to help them now and less of how lonely it feels sometims.
 
anyways, all of those presents sounds like so much fun, and i hope my presents to everybody are being used as well :) lol i can't believe how much everyone has grown, it's so crazy.... i will come back and look like a little dwarf... lol well maybe not that bad, maybe just about hobbit comparison. ;) I can't wait to see you all in pictures :)
 
hugs and handshakes to everyone,
everyone write letters to me ;D
