Hola!
My beautiful family! I can't put into words how good it was to see all of you yesterday. I couldn't even sleep last night because I was just picturing all of your beautiful faces! Ah! I'm sorry we couldn't all talk for longer, but I am SO grateful for the few moments we did get.
I LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH.
So, transfer calls.
Sister Fox and I....................
ARE STAYING IN EASTGATE TOGETHER!!!! Whew. (insert sigh of relief). I have been stressing about transfers all week and was a nervous wreck this morning. But, we are staying so I can breathe again! President actually called and told us how much work we have to do here in this stake because of their HUGE goals, but we are the missionaries to do it! No pressure. So, it will definitely be another crazy, fly by transfer but I cannot wait. There is nothing better than serving with your best friend!!
In other news, Sister Ryan is leaving :( I'm so sad to see her go, but I can't wait for her to go light another area on fire! There are four sisters leaving our zone, so Foxy and I are getting four new sisters to mother!
I don't even know what to tell you about the past week. It was insane.
Let me tell you about it:
Monday: Finished moving into our new apartment
Tuesday: Mission leadership council at the mission home and Mason came home! Yes, we met him the night he came home.
Wednesday: Spent all day planning zone meeting with the zone leaders
Thursday: Zone meeting (taught by foxy and I and the zone leaders)
Friday: Exchange with the Cherry Grove Sisters!
Saturday: Social media split!
Sunday: Mothers Day!!
Here is my take away for the week: God is easy to please, but hard to satisfy. Talk about a lightbulb moment! God is so pleased with us and all of the good we are doing, but he always expects more because he knows our divine potential. That is why we are here after all-- to learn and grow! Heavenly Father isn't interested in our comfort zone; he wants to stretch us to the limits so that we can become like Him! Just remember, He isn't stretching you because you aren't good enough; he's stretching you so you can go from good to GREAT.
I am honestly at a loss. I'm sorry. My mind is kind of swimming from everything! Send me questions to answer next week and I'll love you forever. Oh and if you're planning on sending me something this week you should probably just send it to the blackham's because we don't have a mail key.
Mom, please still send me pioneer stories!
I LOVE YOU
