February 9, 2015

well i`ll be. my mother is going to be the next person to send someone to prison. I`ve never been more proud! my mommy is growing up. good luck mom you will be great. just remember the constitution of the united states and the bill of rights was ordained of God. You can`t go wrong! I will be praying for you. let me know how it goes.

I cant believe you are wearing short sleeves and such. It has snowed almost everyday this week. there is so much! we are going to la balle de neige today. i think justin went to it. it is a gathering of sorts, with ice sculptures, queue de castors, and loads of other things. i am fairly excited for our trek to Ottawa today. 

Thanks so much in advance for the valentines day package. that will be just swell. i am in need of a reeses peanut butter cup, and i have a feeling that these were included. thanks so much you are all too kind. i think that it would be good to get some asthma medicine on second thought. i have been having  a bit of trouble this past week. Also i think my back is getting a little bit worse. It isnt too bad. I will be fine, but i think maybe when i come home it may be wise to have it looked at again. 

Kamwonn. this is how we spell our name in Haitian Creole. we work with so many haitians and so we have been trying to learn a little bit. It is super cool. We are learning so much. It is actually really easy i can read it already. If you read it out loud it is like french mad gab. I love it haha. I am thinking a lot about french. I think i may want to study it when i come home. Yesterday i translated the meetings for a Chinese woman, whom everyone thought was a man. I felt so bad. everone kept asking where he was from, and the lady she was with said, not he! she she she! the lady is japanese. not really sure how they ended up together. But i sat next to her and translated sacrament meeting and the 2nd hour. it reminded me of when i was in ste foy and i had to do that almost every week. it was tiring! 
anyways back to kamwonn. rosie our less active lady we work with made us a haitian meal this last week. it was so delicious. boy let me tell you it was divine. We had a great lesson on the restoration of the Gospel. 

I am a knitting machine let me tell ya. I am in the process of knitting my very own pantoufle. they are just the most comfortable things in the world let me tell ya. a lady in our ward made me a pair and i wear them everyday. 

our investigator apolinaire had us over. unfortunately (or fortunately :)) he was watching the final for la coupe d'afrique. cote d'ivoire was playing ghana. it went to penatlys and so he kept saying after the game we pray ok?? we got there at about 85 minutes, so they went to extra time and pks. the good news is that he is very happy because his country won! the bad news is we had to leave so we couldnt teach him. but we do have  a return appointment and the cup is over so we should not have any more distractions. haha. i hope. 

Overall i would say it was a good week. Life is good. La vie est belle. We are surrounded by tender mercies of the Lord. They come every day. If we have trust in the Lord everything will work out. It is a great time to be alive. This work is the best kind i can be doing right now. I love you all. Christ lives. He loves us!
Godspeed
