James' Baptism this week was amazing!! But the spirit was so strong at James' baptism, I just felt so much love for him! It was great because even though it was the Friday before the 4th of July so many members of the ward came and supported him! It was so sweet to see! The baptism went smoothly and my favorite part was at the end, he got up and bore his testimony and just talked about how God sent him to this church for a reason and about how his life has changed. He then ended his testimony with Woohoo! I love him so much because I have learned so much from him, although the times went up and down with his teaching he made it to that first step and now it is just going to go up hill from here! After the meeting he went around and gave every single person that came a hug, it was great!
This was James baptism last week, he was baptized by Bishop K. That is also Elder Potter and Elder Zacher.
For my birthday this week we just went with a few of the members, we had a few different cakes and it was just a chill birthday! It was nothing huge but it was definitely one of the best ones I have had because we worked so hard! It was sweet though because that night we had a huge miracle, we were walking down the street that we had a few potential investigators on and as we were walking down the street these two kids that we had talked to twice before who are like 9 and 6 came running down the street to us! They got to us right in front of the house that a couple was standing outside of and they were a little shocked that the kids loved us so much so the wife asked us what we did! Before we really even said anything she just started bearing testimony of God. We set up a return appointment but her mom went into the hospital so she had to cancel but it was such a huge miracle because she asked us who we were! The two kids weren't even theirs too so it was birthday present from the Lord!
The apartment is alright, we have basically just come to the fact that it will only get so clean Hahahaha.
That is crazy that it is time to go already. I can't believe it has been 2 years. Thank you for getting the phone and everything ready. I was also wondering if you could set up a hair appointment with Brooke, if she even still does that? And also, I was thinking that I will just get rid of my garments so can you get me some new ones for home? Everything is great here though, I am just trying to enjoy every minute of things. It doesn't seem real to me yet that I am leaving though, it just feels like a normal time. I have mixed feelings about everything though because I am going to miss it so much here but I am excited to go home as well! I am just happy to be able to relax and hang out for a little again ;)
I hope you have a great day today though mom! I love you so so much!
