This week was good. Training is going good for the most part. It's hard. Being a parent is hard. I don't know how you do it. What do you do when you tell them what the right thing to do is over and over and they still don't do it??? Ahh!!! I'm just gonna keep loving her and look for other resources to help me. I've asked the STLs (Senior Team Leaders) to go on exchanges with us this week so she can see that I'm not just making rules up, that everyone follows them. So, I hope that helps! We are super close as friends and we will get to be better friends when she has adjusted and understands her mission.
But hey Dad, I wanted to let you know that I am so grateful for you and for your support in me coming and being on this mission. It is the best decision I've ever made in my life. I don't feel like the same person I use to be. I've been changed through the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I get to do here what I always wanted to do back home, but didn't because of the way the world is. Here I get to love EVERYONE unconditionally, and share with them the thing that will help them the most, the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I know without a shadow of a doubt that this is the church of Jesus Christ, and that the stories and teachings told in the Book of Mormon are true. I know that God loves me and you and Jenny and Mom and each person in this world and knows us all by name. I know that we are all a part of His family. I can't wait for the day that I come home and we get to be sealed as a family in the temple.
I love you all so much and I can't wait to talk to you!!!
