I love you so much mom! Yesterday was incredible! Its such a happy moment any time i get to talk with my family. i was seriously so excited and happy the whole week waiting to talk to you guys cause there is nothing that makes me happier. 

im looking forward to getting back to the work now and giving my all to this. Trusting in the lord that everything will work out if i give my all. That i may baptize 100 or 0, but I know if i give my all it wont matter. 

I guess in your prayers this week just pray that elites can be put in our path and that pamela and rafael will continue strong. 

I know its pretty weird to think how much is already over! It makes me want to give even more every week cause i know how fast it will go by. 

I wanna thank you for my package as well! The peeps and sour patch watermelon and chocholate covered marshmallow bunnies are spot onnnnnn!!! I will read the talk this week too. Loved the pics of our fam. we have so many great memories together as a family!

I am a little sad today just cause yesterday was so awesome but ill be ok after i get started working this week. I guess i always also thought id be skyping sally so that was weird too. It just sucks cause im still not where i want to be with her yet. Every picture of her i see i just think she is the most perfect girl to ever be born. so if it were officially put off at this point i would struggle no doubt. Im just praying that some of these feelings can be taken away from me and that i can be given more trust in HF plan for me every day

I love you mom! You are the best thing in this world! I cannot thank you enough for your support and for everything you have done for me up to this point.

Also I sent abby an email about my insta post so have her check! and also send me some caption ideas i have no idea what to say

TO THE FAMILY:
Hey guys i just wanna thank you guys for such and awesome day and talk yesterday. I couldnt wipe the smile off my face the whole week cause i was so excited to talk to you guys. Nothing compares! You guys are the best support system. I want to thank you guys for all the advice and especially just the "do your best and leave the rest to the Lord" part. It really is helping me cause sometimes i dont agree with how people here (especially leaders) think about the mission.  I couldnt do this all without you guys!

Love,
Elder G

its ok mom. just sad and confused. but i know the lord has a plan. just dont understand why it had to happen this way.  she is dating someone i think. he kinda looks like me lol except he has huge ears. your right. its just time to turn a corner. no matter how hard that is. im gonna write her a letter today just telling her how i feel and be done with it. im being transferred. 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 ...
