Dear Fambly,
Wanna know something crazy? On my birthday, I only ate one little piece of cake, which came from a stranger that let us into her home, i didn't receive a single wrapped present, we had a normal proselyting day, knocking doors and doing contacts.... by all measurable means, it was the poorest birthday ever,
but on Sunday morning, i received a few of the best presents ever. 1, Braian was confirmed a member of the church. He was baptized the day before:) 2, Roque, my convert from Neuquen, randomly showed up at the church after the first class. He came all the way from Neuquen just to wish me happy birthday. I love that old man! 3, we had 5 investigators in church, 4 of them have baptismal dates:) and they really liked the meetings because the members made them feel comfortable! yay!!! and 5, I got lots of hugs from the Hermanas in the ward!!! They're adorable. -i think ill bring some home with me;)
So basically, i had a lovely birthday, it wasn't the normal self-centered, "its my day, everybody focus on me" type of birthday, but it was SO much better!!! Id like to have birthdays like this one for the rest of my life! haha every year, somebody i know and helped to come unto Christ will be baptized... actually, that's not a bad goal! I like it!!!!
Anyway, aside from that, i don{t have lots to tell. Thanks for all the birthday wishes that you all sent me! I feel really loved:) and i love you all back! tehe
Oh, also i think were going to be moving from the house were living in now but i don't know exactly when... all i know is the mice are insoportable!!! They keep us up all night with their little scratchy noises and the other day my comp wanted to eat some chocolate that she had saved in her desk, and when she pulled it out, it was half eaten! they gnawed through the wrapper and had a little midnight snack:( haha she was so grossed out!
anyway, i ended that on a happy note;) oh well, gotta go! Love you all TONS!!!!!!!
Love,
Hermana Jones
