Well I really want to send pictures...but it's not working.
:( Just when I have several to share! Jaja. We had an amazing week...its always
amazing...whether the amazement is the level of craziness that occurs, or the
beautiful moments that we experience. Its all a wonderful ball of happiness and
work. I can´t believe that I have been a missionary for almost four months.
So. We had a baptism this Saturday! There were three
altogether, and I am so happy for each and every one of them. The baptismal
service was beautiful...I of course teared up. In moments like that, my spirit
is so alive, I can´t help it. Our purpose here is to invite others to come unto
Christ...and it's such a wonderful feeling when you see that they´ve received
your invitation.
Also, the first ever missionary to leave from Las Tablas
returned last week...and we had a party to welcome her after the baptism. Also,
to celebrate my birthday. Yeah, they made a cake with my name on it and
everything! And if you´re wondering if we had a piñata...you bet we did! Did it
have blonde hair and blue eyes? Of course it did! Did they sing Happy Birthday
in English just for me? Of course! Was I showered with confetti, cards, and the
best handshakes from guys and hugs from the girls ever? Of course I was! This
branch is amazing...they were so excited to share in the day with me. And I
couldn´t have been happier with a different way to celebrate...with three
baptisms, and being surrounded with happy followers of Christ. I am so grateful
to be here.
Ah! I am running out of time! I am so happy...and thanks to
all who wished me a happy birthday! I am so blessed.
Until next week!!

A little side note to me (mom): Breathe, know that your daughter is perfectly sweaty, tan, and happy here in Panama. Don´t worry! The Lord is taking care of me, I have an amazing family here in the branch...I was seriously taken care of on my birthday. Heavenly Father has placed me in the lives of very loving people. Just keep telling me what is going on at home, and sending pictures. That´s all I need! And occasionally music, jaja. I love you guys so much!
(She knows I worry. I can't believe she's the same kid! Sweaty, tan and happy.... wow! I love my baby girl!)
