The beautiful Botanical Gardens |
Yesterday Jenny
and Eric got baptized! HOORAY!! She is
10 and he is 8, and they are 2 kids that really grew on me. I'm not gonna lie, at first I had a harder
time loving them. The feeling was mutual because initially they DID NOT
want to meet with us, but then as time went on, we got to know them well and
they really warmed up to us! I'll never forget our lesson last week when we
were walking out to our car after the lesson, Jenny ran out of her house, gave
us hugs and said "I love you."
Awww! And this is coming from the
same girl who would say "Missionaries! Hide!" when we were knocking
on the door and they thought we couldn't hear them. It just goes to show that if you just spend
time with someone, love will connect you….and everyone wants to be loved:) Cheesy but so true! These were my first baptisms and Hna Black's
last (sniff sniff..I try not to think about it).

In other
news....I'm going to be training!!! AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm
more than a little nervous.....actually when President Ames called me I about
had an aneurism. So yep, Wednesday I get to go pick up my little greenie who won't
know any Spanish (gulp). Any prayers for
the Spanish speaking ability of my greenie would be much appreciated.

New Trainers and District Leaders |
On the plus
side I did get to go to an awesome leadership and training meeting on Friday! It was so spiritually awesome! And then afterwards
our ride got lost so we got to hang out at the church with President and Sister
Ames for an hour, so I can't complain:) They are the most amazing people
ever!

Sorry, I know my picture looks kind of evil. Thankfully Hma Black stayed classy.

It's been a
pretty crazy week just trying to get everything ready for next week, and
watching Hna Black pack up all her stuff …I'm still not going to talk about
it:'( If her family ever reads my blog, I just want them to know that Hna Black is
literally one of the most amazing people I know! Her testimony and her positive attitude about
everything, really set the perfect tone for what I needed for my mission, and
is exactly what our investigators needed also! She is the kind of missionary I want to be in
a year. So thanks for raising an awesome daughter/sister. Oh and thanks for feeding her super strange
healthy foods that she could share with me to help fix my horrible Nutella
diet:)

We can fly!! |
So it looks
like I'm officially going to be staying here in Fort Worth hasta Noviembre.
Woot Woot! The work keeps rolling along:)
Love all of you tons!
love Hna Bonny
