First off...I'm writing so late because we had p-day with Pres. We baptized the most as a zone last month.

I miss George. That's so cool that he is home. I do the same thing he did when I talk in English. I replace English words with Spanish ones...unless I try hard. Maybe you'll get that on mothers day.

I love that dook lost. I hate that Marshall is hurt. I miss march madness. Oh well, last one that I miss :)

Church is good. We are hoping for some baptisms this week. We are sure of a few--just a few that we aren't sure of yet. And actually yesterday was a stake conference but a transmission from SLC. We had Elder Clark and Sister Dibb and Elder Clayton and Pres. Packer. Quick background of what they talked about...

Elder Clark....less actives...the parable of the Lost Sheep

Sister Dibb...virtue...

Elder Clayton...keeping the commandments. If you keep the commandments, you will prosper in the land...like it says in the Book of Mormon.

and Pres. Packer....if there is faith, there is no reason to fear. He told the youth to memorize scriptures and that we are in a time of preparation. Then he left a blessing on them that they will be cared for and they won't have fear and will live the Gospel with a testimony that will be a lighthouse for them and that they will always have everything they need. But the blessing has to do with what Elder Clayton said. He mentioned it right before he pronounced the blessing on them.

We also had Elder Amado with us. It was so great. He spent more time with us than with any other group. He said he felt like he should keep talking and teaching so he stayed til 4. The plan was to go til 2:30. I don't have time to write what he taught thanks to our P-day with President but I'll do it next week.

As for my birthday--I don't need anything. Maybe just money. The drink packets are nice though....haha...

love you
