FAMILY!!

I'm doing super great and extremely happy!!  As for now I don't have any parasites but I also hope I don't get anymore! lol  You think its warmer there... i didn't think Nicaragua could get any hotter!! lol I actually like the hot weather because at the end of the day I am so exhausted that I just go straight to bed!  However, we still haven't gotten to the hottest part of the year but I guess we will see how things go because its supposed to be getting even hotter (and yes i am drinking a ton of water) lol i know you worry so I will just say it! lol  YES we get to see conference!! It's like the best part of the year!   One experience that I had was we were leaving the house and I fell down off the stairs to our house and was just sitting on my butt outside and my companion just was laughing his head off and all the people that saw thought it was super funny... even I was laughing because it truly was.  I just played it off and its helped me and my companion get even closer because we can laugh at our mistakes and just look at them as something to laugh at because we have learned that everyone makes them and its not a huge deal. Well this week has been amazing!!  Me and my companion are doing great work and we are helping the people here to learn and grow!  We should be baptizing a family on the 23 of this month and its going to be great!! I am super stoked for it and I can't wait!! They both have a testimony and we are pretty much waiting for the day!  We have been able to grow super close to them and they are super happy!  We also have another family that we should be baptizing on the 30!  So we are doing amazing and are filled with joy to be serving in the Lord's vineyard!  This week  I had a great experience with the member that is down from the states!  He really has helped me to learn and to grow as a missionary.  Me and my companion have been talking about the mission and everything and we have come to the conclusion that the reason we do all we do and the reason we are here is for love.  I have been studying love this week and its such a amazing thing to learn.  Its something so small but yet so complex.  Learning what love means and putting it into practice has brought a grand change in my heart.  I learned why I'm here even more,  I now understand the Atonement of Christ more,  And even more I have been able to find the success through love!  Love is what healed all those people in the Bible and Book of Mormon.  Love blocks out fear, pride, and everything bad!  I have been praying really hard to be able to filled with the Lord's love... it's changed me... Its brought grand changes and it's helped me to understand more and to be filled more with the spirit being a better instrument in the hands of God.  I know I don't understand fully the love but I am still learning and growing!  I know I love each and everyone of you because every time I read your letters it fills me with joy and happiness and iI would do anything for you!! I pray for you always and always wish for the best!! I wouldn't know what i would do without you!! I love you so much!!
