So this week has been super interesting! Last Thursday was one of the hardest times in my mission. My Spanish struggled so much and I have been super hard on myself for not being perfect so I went to sleep with such a bad feeling last Thursday. When I woke up Friday, all I wanted to do was go home. I just layed in my bed and didn't say a word to my companion because I don't want him worrying about me! I read some scriptures for study and I studied the crap out of my Spanish Dictionary so I didn't have another day like Thursday! I can honestly say I had the gift of tongues on Friday. Every house we passed and every person we visited, I could testify in almost perfect Spanish, it was so amazing!! Also, we got a reference from one of the members in our Branch who had a friend who had her son die at 4 years old! The first time we visited her was Tuesday I think and She.... AND HER MOM were in church on Sunday! we visited them on Monday and placed a baptismal date for February 8th and so we have 2 baptisms in February! this week has been such a roller coaster but I have been strengthened so much on my mission!! I love it here and my time is going so fast! Well I love and miss you all!
