This week has been SO FAST! and i just wanted
to start out by telling all of you how much i love you. This week has helped me
appreciate and help my testimony of eternal families grow. This week i am
grateful for a dad who works SO hard for me and the rest of the family, who
loves us so much and who makes me laugh ALL THE TIME. I'm grateful for a mum
who works tirelessly for all of us as well and who takes care of me when i'm
sick and reads with me on her bed :) I'm grateful for an older sister and a
brother in law who support me while i serve the Lord and who love me. Kort and
Jermy i love you heaps! i'm grateful for an older sister who is an AMAZING
example to me. Your testimony and your strength, Jess, has helped me so much
here in New Zealand. I have learned so much form you and your dedicated service
and love to Heavenly Father. I', grateful for a little brother who isn't very
little. Silas i am so SO SO excited for you to serve your mission! i tell
EVERYBODY about you, and how proud i am of you. your determination to serve and
your preparation has taught me so much! I'm grateful for a little brother who
is my twin GWAYYYYYY. Stoogey you're so cool! You just want something and so
you do it! That is going to help in SO many aspects of your life especially in
the Gospel. I am grateful that you are a good example to your friends. KEEP IT
UP! I'm grateful for my little baby brother. Hebs you're a boss. i can't
believe how old and tall you are and how long your hair is hahaha. You're going
to do amazing things as you continue to prepare for a mission and do well in
school! i need brains like you! I am just really grateful for my crazy, funny,
loud eternal family. there is an elder in our district who lost his dad last
week and one of my recent companions lost her dad the week before and it has
really put into perspective how much i love my family. i was reminded about my
setting apart blessing and how i was promised that my "family would remain
intact as i served the Lord" and i am SO grateful for that. i love all of
yous so much and i don't know what i would do without you. i can feel your
prayers and your support.
On another note we had Zone Conferences with
Elder Haleck of the Seventy who's in the Area Presidency and it was SO good. He
told us to fight to the end. work till the end. so that's what i'm going to do.
That was my plan already but now it's set. :) haha
i can't wait to skype yous next week!!!!
have a good week!
May the force be with you
