Jaja!  It was so fun to talk to everyone yesterday!!!   Things seem to be going well there! Sorry we couldn’t figure out how to add Jens and Cath. That was sad but it was good to see them added in by phones! Technology!  I filmed my testimony but I don’t know if it will work because it is sideways.  Maybe April can magically make it normal... 

Wow it was really hard to talk yesterday in English. That is a very bad thing because it means that I am not teaching my companion well enough. I was literally translating as I spoke. It is a struggle, but I guess I will learn again someday. 

For my birthday the familia Guevara got me a cake made of pure chocolate and it was so rich and perfect and they had me eat two pieces of it. After that I couldn’t eat anything for dinner. They were very sweet to do that. I really enjoyed my birthday.  It was really fun and now I have 20 years!!!!!!!  I am super old now.  I never thought that I would put a 2 in front of my age but life is life and it flies. You all got me a hammock for my birthday and I really appreciate it.  We get home and pray and then we put our feet up and relax. It is quite comfy. This week it has been wanting to rain but it only rained a little bit on Sunday. We just sweat so much that it looks like it is always raining. Jaja. Gross. Sorry that I haven’t sent many pics lately.  The internet is soooooo slow, but I am grateful that there is internet.  President Hinckley says to be optimistic. I am working on being better at that.  Hey, but I’m pretty optimistic about my new jeep that Niel got me ;) jaja!   There are a lot of really wonderful people here in Chapa. I love this area a lot. The members are really sweet and it makes me want to serve them more. Be sweet people. Sorry for being a brat in my lifetime. I am trying to improve.  For my birthday, Hna Salguero woke me up with a plate of whipped cream with a sticky note saying "20" in the middle, and she sang Happy Birthday.  Then, 2 minutes later, the zone leaders arrived with breakfast. They made baleadas because one is from Honduras. Haha, it was a good start to my day. 

I love you!
