¡Grand Eres Tu! - (What ever that means!)


Familia!!!! It has been two months today! That is so crazy! Time has
gone by so fast! One more week and we are off to Ecuador! I am so so
ready to get there! It has been great here but it feels like this is
all the mission is because it´s all I have known but there is more to
it! We have gotten to experience the real mission a few times on our
proselyting days but I´m ready to be a real missionary! So this last
Saturday we went proselyting again and we didn´t have a teacher or a
member with us, just my companion and I, and it was so so awesome! We
taught 5 really great people, one was an adorable little family and
the kids were so cute! It was a mom with her little boy and girl and
her niece and the little girl was so interested in what we were saying
and when we gave the mom the Book of Mormon she tried to take it from
her and read it but the mom didn´t want her to bend the pages so I
gave her the Restoration folleta- I don´t know what its called in
engish anymore- and she was so so excited to read it! She was
adorable! And all of the other people were great too! It´s so amazing
to feel yourself being led to people or doors that are willing and
excited to listen! And I am so lucky to have an amazing companion! She
is a really great teacher and I am learning so much from her! I just
wish I was fluent in Spanish so I could make more sense while I´m
teaching! But the Spirit is the teacher and I have seen these people
feel it even though they probably can´t understand a word I am saying!
So I just keep doing my best and the Lord will take over! It´s hard
sometimes to talk from my heart when I have to concentrate so hard on
forming sentences but I have been trying to work on it and it is
making a difference! It sounds like everyone is doing great and having
fun! I can´t wait to get pictures of Maddie leaving to school on the
short bus! She´s just a little baby! That´s so wierd! A car seat on a
short bus? haha I can´t believe she will be 3 in a few weeks! I´m sure
she is getting so big and grown up! I love you all! Thank you for all
of your thoughts and prayers! I definately feel them and I know they
are why I am able to keep going everyday!

Love forever and always,
