For the past couple of days, I have been noticing that all of my socks are getting holes in the balls of my feet, and I have been wondering why and just thinking that my socks are getting old. Then, I took a look at the bottom of my shoe, and I saw my foot and started cracking up in the street. haha.
I am crying in cyber because of all of the pictures and letters from and about Marc and Nic today. I've actually been doing a lot of that lately. Every time I feel the spirit of missionary work, like in a lesson, or at church or something, I start to cry because I know that I will be feeling a lot less of that soon. My companion and I are trying to just work our hardest, and in reality we are just super enjoying everything.
As for our family, they are getting married this Friday, and everything is still on schedule. They have their interview tomorrow, and then instead of Saturday, they are getting baptized on Sunday after church and then confirmed the same day. We changed the day because on Saturday there is a stake activity and our chapel is the stake center. We couldn't find a time other than 2 in the afternoon, and having a baptism in Argentina durring the siesta is like asking for no one to show up, maybe even the people getting baptized. haha.
This last week I got strep throat just like my companion, so that pretty much sums up our week. But our family is so cute!! This week the dad told us that he asked his children if they wanted some tea in the morning with their breakfast (something they used to always do), and then the children were like all confused and offended because the Hermanitas said that tea was bad. Then the dad said, "I know I was just testing you." It was a super cute story! Ya, these children are super, super cute. With the last week before the baptism, we are expecting a lot of problems, but it is to be expected before every single baptism.
I am going to go, but l love you! And hopefully there will be pictures of a baptism for you next week!
xoxo,
Hermana Chloe

| These are two pictures that I have in my bag and show almost every new person we talk to. It really helps us gain confidence with the people to talk about our families. The first picture is one side and the second is the other side. (Do you like how I added myself to the graduation picture?) |
