July 23, 2012 Letter


Dear Wonderful, excited, funny, patient, hard working, still good looking even if you dont have time to get ready, best mother in the world,
 
Hi mom! I know isnt this the weirdest. Im so nervous about next week. Its weird. I felt like this day would never come and its still very surreal. This week is board week and President is deciding what is going to happen with everyone and Im not even on the board anymore! It is very weird. but exciting.

Well the person getting baptized I know I talked about her before I just cant remember what name I gave her. We will call her Red. We have been teaching Red the whole time I have been here. She is great and is really ready to be baptized. It has just been a struggle with the law of chastity. She is finally ready to commit though. It almost went down hill last week, thanks alot satan, but we had a good  talk and I think she really wants to gospel in her life. She is a really hard worker and has taught me alot. Its funny how you can meet people and learn so much about what you want in your life and what you dont want in your life. My mission has really helped me see what I want to have in my life. Most importantly the gospel! Man having the gospel in our lives really does give us an adavantage! I have never realized how blessed we are to have it. Im so grateful for it. Ive also realized how important education is! Man that is important to have. I want to get as much of it as I can now. Lots of things I have learned from alot of people but most recently from Red.

We are finding alot more potential lately. I am grateful for that. I have really wanted to leave more in this area then I found. Its proven to be difficult! But I love this area it really is amazing. I love the people. Sister Cunningham and I havea saying its "dont hate the people love the people." Sister Cunningham used to be a bit angsty. Its the funniest thing of my life. I like to give her a hard time about it. Now shes a people lover though.

Im so glad to hear that everyone is doing well!  thanks so much for the pictures! I love them! Baby Ella is so cute! Good Job JaRelle! That is so fun! I cannot wait to meet her. Im proud of  Tyson! I am such a sinner because I get so excited to meet Ella and to watch Tyson play soccer. I really look forward to it! Is that a sin? I dont know. The only thing I am excited for about coming home is seeing all of you. The rest of it makes me sick inside.
Umm yeah we are going to be stingy with Tosha and Eric the next week! I am NOT going to be ok with sharing. At all. Not ok. For anyone. The non sharing policy goes with all of the family members :you dad tosha eric anna wes dave jarelle peyton ella mckay lauren and tyson. No one is allowed to even think of seeing other people. Its not going to happen. Just going to throw that one out there. 

Well not alot of crazy stuff is going on. Just the usual missionary life. I like it though. Its better usual sometimes craziness is not good. 

Well I love you so so much! Thanks for everything mom. Oh yeah my favorite hymn...I have really been pondering it. My favorite hymn is Come Come ye Saints but I feel bad because I feel like everyone just sang it for pioneer day. So if that sounds like an awful idea because I have been given much is a good one too.  Or  if there is one that sounds super awesome on the flute she can totally do that! I have faith in her. Umm also..so next week I have to pay for my luggage. I have no idea how much that is. Sorry mom....I LOVE YOU!!!
Have the best week ever! I love you so much! Thanks for all that you do for me! I love love love love love lvoe you!!!
 
loves loves kisses hugs
love. sister bailey
