Good Monday...AKA P-day

Family!!!!

Como andan!!!!! Todo bien aca. Haciendo lo justo. jaja. (they write haha like jaja here cause its spanish for haha)
The package was amazing. I ate all the food super fast. The cake turned out BOMB!!!! When i ate the batter i felt like i was at home cause i havent tasted that in like 1 year. haha. It brought me back to the old days haha. My health problems are going away haha. My headaches i dont get as often and my rash is fading away. I hav this stuff i have to shower with and i have to use it for 2 weeks and i just finished week one on friday so everything should come back to normal. Its crazy to thing of the time i have left on the mission. All the people were right when they said...."it goes by fast" i guess i was never one to believe that til it happened to me. But the thing i love is that it is passing with the people i love here in argentina. Maybe my comp is lazy, but i wont get to spend another 3 transfers with anyone like him haha. Jordan Evans comes home on the 28th i think. The end of this month. If you see him tell him i love him and that he needs to write me.

I cant believe that Philip Nathan Ross is finally out of his shell. Its a miracle. Someone might just have a girlfriend when i get home! THERE IS HOPE!!!! hahahahaha. Its good to hear about the family. I was always a mommas boy when i was little (i still am) and i would always get home sick when i was little. UP until my mission even. But since the MTC i havent been homesick. I can talk about my family all day and i know that they are safe and doing good so there is no reason to be homesick. haha. Glad you kids have summer. Here its super cold. super cold. Its crazy. June and its cold? yeah thats never happened in my life. haha. who woulda thunk!  but its the way the cookie crumbles and ya just deal with it.

My week wasnt very successfull, we didnt do alot. But we did do divisions and we actually taught people. I had a blast! I felt soooo good. I actually got to teach people and the lessons were PERFECT!!!! I love teaching. I love it so much!!!!! These people need it so bad and i am so willing to teach them cause i know they need it. SOmething i learned this week was in the confernce talks i read. Talks from way back when (2009) and i just got the confermation of the spirit that they were written for me. FOR ME!!! I thought "no way, in 2009 i was sitting on the couch during confernece thinking.....ok...two more talks then i can eat!!!" then later in my mission i just found out that even thought i wasnt listening, they were written for me.
The other thing was the opportunity to think of the two amazing/out of this world amazing parents that i have. I just think back and reflect on your examples to me of living the gospel. I remeber mom always said "i hope i bare my testimony through my actions." Mom, you did an amazing job! And to think of how amazing Dad was in the church, always happy. I couldnt ask for a better set of parents. I hope i can be half the dad that my Dad is. And i hope that me and my future wife can be half the parents you guys are. You did a perfect job. Thanks for everything. Love you guys!!!!
