Time to get creative

 Spewing my thoughts into one email every week is not a good look for me. Mostly cuz I have none.

  Saw the smallest man in my life that wasn't a midget. King. To sum it up, this week was mostly just not working out for us. But by the end it was the best week ever. Just like every week. I went on an exchange with Sister Day! Finally! After years of waiting. It was great. I had a lot of fun and it was a good boost to get me through the rest of the week. I love sister Day a lot 🤭 I drew her a picture of the devil!! A lot of buildup of miracles was happening throughout the week and it seemed to all release  on Saturday night ! It was awesome. Nothing in specific but it was just a good night. Then we woke up  Sunday morning  and i was so very thankful for Sundays. More grateful than I've ever been before. Sundays are glorious and church was wonderful! I just loved being there and I hope our friends did, too! Finally, after a lot of weeks, our little 9 year old Edward came to church. He is my favorite kid in the branch and I was so overjoyed to see him walk into the ...

That's called boy tipping

  The only mega awesome super dope thing that happened this week was the mission tour. Here's the super double scoop. Picture this. A tribe of asparagus children but they're self conscious about the way their pee smells... I'm kidding again. Okay, actually picture this... You just had a nice little meeting with Elder Christensen. He walks up to you shakes your hand and asks where you from. You talk about the zones. The Macon zone is there. The Fayetteville zone is there. The missionaries eat meatballs and rice together. We pan to pictures. We then leave the room and we walk into the chapel. He shares his message and revelation fills the room. In the middle of a question someone in the back raises their hand. You turn around to see who it is.  It's a random woman. She gets up, spits some bars, and sits back down quietly.  During a 10 minute bathroom break, you notice some elders talking to her for quite a while. Later in the meeting Elder Christensen calls up for the wom...
