hi mom! well sally didnt email me this week. whatever. im thinking its probably winding down. idk what to think. when i think about it i just get depressed so i just dont think about it. i still think that if shes there when i get back we'll be fine and feel all those feelings again. she just needs some time. 

but thank you for your email. i think it was awesome what abby said and the conversation you guys had. im glad we can be an example to her. 

so did you activate my debit card?

funny stuff from this week. 1 MORE WEEK IN THIS TRANSFER YAYYY LOL
so aguiar was explaining to one of our investigators that you have to see through the eyes of jesus. He explained a rule that after 6pm missionaries shouildnt buy like food or use the bathroom or something. (which idk if thats even a rule ive never heard of it) and he said it was hard for him last transfer when his comp would use the bathroom or something after 6. He said he had to "put himself in his comps shoes and think that maybe he just really needed to use the bathroom" OMG i was like so this is what this nigga is thinking every time i freaking get a drink or go to the bathroom after 6. ugh mom hes crazy i cant wait for next week. i hope so so bad i am transferred. 
also we were telling the scariest stories from our mission and he literally said the scariest thing was one time a girl new to the church tried to do the kiss on the cheek thing with him cause she didnt know missionaries couldnt do it. hahahahaha i was like THAT is the scariest thing from your 9 month mission so far?????!!!! lol

also i think you guys should order a soda off of amazon called guarana. its the big soda here. just order like the cheapest 6 pack. i like it a lot i think its really good. and if you delivered one to eric he would be so so happy haha. 

love you mom!

I will go to Jardim Simos and be with an elder I dont know. I will be the senior companion which is really cool. Hes a brazilian, just finished his traning, and has about only 3 months on the mission. Im so glad and relieved. i was just ready to leave aguiar. he is just a difficult person sometimes.  love you mom.  yeah that sounds really difficult and probably something that would be really hard to do at the mission office haha. ok thank you for looking it up.  I love you so freaking much mom! You are my hero! Sorry that it has to be all annoying like this. I will defini...

Good morning my sweet boy! How was your week? I’m hoping there were some baptisms and the people followed through on their commitments:) Did you love conference? One of my favorite things about it was how I knew we were sitting there doing the exact same thing at the same time! That was comforting to me. I absolutely loved it! If you didn’t get a chance to watch the women’s broadcast you should try. I will send you an Ensign conference edition when it gets here so you can read all the talks again and study them. I feel like I received many personal messages from the talks. So many of them focused on our ability to stay faithful and receive comfort during trials... not one minute of our suffering is wasted. It is all for our good and our growth. That was one of the messages that I took away and feel strengthened by.  I also felt a recommitment to strengthening my conversion. That also seemed to be a theme of conference. Are we living the gospel by going through the motions and check...

Hey buddy!    I’m glad I finally get a chance to sit down and write. Baby stuff has taken over my life but we are very excited to have Harper with us in the next few weeks. Excited for you to meet your new little cousin when you return. Sounds like you are doing really well! I know you’ve had minor struggles and home sickness along the way, but it’s good to see you pumped and positive. Sounds like you’re doing a great job!     Hey listen, I know everyone has chimed in on the girl situation and you’re probably tired of talking about it at this point, but I wanted to try to talk to you about it as well because I’ve had the unwelcome pleasure of going through 3 life changing heart breaks that I never thought I’d recover from so I can speak to you from experience and hopefully put some perspective on things.     I had been with Alicia for 5 years, we were in love but it was more than that. It was how the family loved her, how much I loved her family and ...
