This last week was really great. We had 5 investigators at church. We finally hit the Standard of Excellence. It only took us 11 weeks, but we're finally starting to see what happens when you work hard for the Lord. We picked up Azoree (As-or-eh) this last week, and she is so dope and elect. When we taught her the first discussion and invited her to get baptized, she was like, "Can we go and do it now?!" It was really cool to see her interested in the Gospel like that. Then Mark and Diane came to church this last week, and they want to get baptized as well. They just don't have a date set, so we're going to go bike over there tonight (we're on bike until Thursday and it's going to be hot as balls...yay.) and see if we can put them on date for like this weekend. No baptisms yet, but we have a couple on date. If we get all of them this next transfer, that will 9 in 6 weeks. That's a ridiculous amount of people for one companionship to baptize. Hopefully we get them in May. Vasti and Corrina are doing alright. They're just hard to get a hold of because they're 12 and 9 years old. So when the parents are gone, the kids are probably with them. We'll get them though. Same with Rylee and Lexi Bishopp. They're 9 and 12 and it's just scheduling. We're pretty sure that Lexi believe's in God now, so that's fine. We just have to get her in the font now, Lord willing.
I don't know what's up, but today I just don't feel like working. It's just one of those days. It's not that I'm homesick, or wishing I was home with friend's or anything like that, I just don't want to do anything. But it doesn't matter. The Lord doesn't call us to work when we want to, he called us to work because he needs us to, and that's what we'll do. Not only has he asked us to endure, but to endure well.
P-day went okay. We played kick ball in a gym. Some Elder's just take sport's way too seriously. That's annoying.
Anyway, we're going to slay it this last week of the transfer, see if we can dunk some people this coming Sunday. It was good to see everyone yesterday.
Love you guys

This boy of mine is looking more and more like my daddy everyday. I love his sweet spirit (he has always had one, just a little sneaky at times) his grin has always saved his life! I am so grateful that he used the atonement for it's intended purpose and worked his way back to the mission field. I miss him every second of everyday, but I am so grateful he is serving the Lord. He is the happiest I have ever seen him.
