HAS IT ALREADY BEEN 6 MONTHS?!?!?!? WOOOOOW!

HOLAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!
 

HOW IS IT GOIN :) :) :)

WOOOOOOOOWWWWW!!!! 


 I cannot believe that I have been on my mission for 6 whole months. That is crazy. It has gone by so fast, yet so slow! Some weeks drag on and others seem like they are a blink! I love the warped mission time :)

WELLLLLLLLL........MARIANA WAS BAPTIZED ON SATURDAY!!!! It was so amazing :) She was super excited. Marlon was really excited too! He gave the talk on baptism and it was perfect. Everyone was crying. Except their son Diego. He was singing :) He sings all the time. After Mariana's baptism she was just glowing. She is so excited for her family to be sealed in one year!!! That will be the best day ever. We had dinner with them last night and it was awesome...as always. Marlon was telling mission stories and all!!! They are having us over for Thanksgiving too!!! And.....they actually serve us fruits and veggies....THEY ARE JUST THE BEST!!!!

Well here are my thoughts about being a missionary now that I have 1/3 of it behind me:

A mission is a lot harder than I thought it would be.....but

There have been so many more blessing than I thought there would be...and

You learn so much about yourself...but

I think that the most significant things I have learned about are love, faith, and hope.

Sometimes I find myself sitting at someones kitchen table listening to their stories and all of a  sudden i am all like "WHAT?!?!? Am I really doing this? Am I really a missionary? And I am seriously a representative of Jesus Christ?" You never get use to that. And the Spanish just makes it even more unreal because they are telling me a story that 6 months ago I would have totally been lost in. It is crazy how everything clicks. I love it so much :)

I have been reading the New Testament recently and it has been great to read about the life of the Savior. I love my Savior and I know He lives.

I hope everyone has a great/awesome/superdeeduperdee week!!!

LOVE YOU SO SO SO MUCH!!!

Love,

Hermana Tucker
