Well I hit 10 months and we celebrated with pupusas! Era muy rica. But yeah in other news we played futbol, I found out I have the same size feet as an elder (why am I a giant?) went to a noche chhapina #comidatipica, found some snakes in a bakery, made some tortillas, beautiful views as always, and was a bombero with abies. It was a good week. Super long but super good. My hija is progressing a ton and is more of a pro at spanish every day. It amkes me so proud. She's also adjusting to the food. She doesn't like horhcata. It's funny training a gringa because i's bringing back all my memories of culture shock. 'cause no it 's just noraml. But yeah coming here to Guate is def a change and sometimes it's hard. But my comps doing quite well. Sorry you guys don't really need an update on my nena but I lovee her anad I'm just proud of her so you get to hear about it. Suckas.
Anyway in news of things spiritual this week has been full of moments where we've been blessed for following the spirit. I still have a sliight fear of talking to people in the street. Idk t's just so uncomfortable and I know that if it was me and some random girls just came up and started talking to me I'd want to run away. But I know it's different here and that iI'm I'm also a missionary. But several times this week I've felt propmpted to go up and talk to someone or my comp and when we do we meet the nicest most receptive people I feel like I've ever met on my mission. That may not be true but that's what it feels like. I think we can really live our lives how we want. But when we listen to the spirit and follow the guidance of the lord it can be so much happier and we can do so much more with our lives. So my suggestion and missionay advice to you people of this week is to make sure that you look forr and listen and act on those propmtings of teh spirit. nda I know taht as you do it you're week is going to e a hecka lot better. Wow so missionary of me. Ugh please forgive me. I've been out here for 10 months. I'm old. You guys don't even know how many times people have told me this week "Oh your almost done with your mission" "Oh I bet your parents are counting down the days" etc etc it's like dude I still have 8 months left! That's forever! But still it's weird being old in the mission. Bu I dig it. I have authority. Jk I'm just a normal missionary. Welp I love you people! Be good! Till next time!
p.s. no pics! Internet is slow.
