Well, this week has been crazy but one of our investigators got baptized!! Yay! I was stressing all night before because something bad has to happen but luckily she went out to breakfast with a member before her baptism so she was okay haha. The baptism went really well... I got to give a talk at it about baptism and my comps and I did a musical number I played the piano of course we just did a baptism song out of the primary book. So that was the highlight of the week.
Something that the mission has really done to me is soften my heart towards kids. We all know I couldn't stand them but now I am very protective over all of them haha not just little kids but teenagers too... It is really weird and my comps tease me because I get protective over them..My comp and I decided after our missions we are going to adopt all of them haha.
Anyways, we are still meeting with the Hernandez's. They want to stay catholic but love it when we come over haha...So we will still come over. The mom is always nice when we come over and they always feed us. We didn't have our dinner calendar passed around so we didn't have dinners for 2 weeks but our investigators or less-actives that we would visit would just feed us when we came by so that was a blessing.
haha Another funny story is this family that fell off the face of the earth we came by there house at night they live in a sketchy neighborhood but we were determined to see them so we waited for 10 mins and they pulled in. I opened the door and it knocked my companion to the ground haha the mom was really mad about who knows what she is always kind of mad and so we asked the kids if we could come in they said yea...and my comp and I were holding their daughter who is 7 bcz we have missed them a lot! Well the mom walks back into the room mad tells her daughter to get over there and starts checking her hair for lice! So the daughter looks at us and says uh oh! haha the mom was mad so we literally sat there for 10 mins dead silent!! Finally she warmed up a bit and started talking to us and they had to pick someone up so they were heading out but the mom started laughing and warmed up and my comp told her that if she was honorary we would still come by and just talk to her daughters the mom started laughing and it was a crazy night haha Then we just took showers when we got home...her girls didn't have lice but just to be safe we took showers!
There was also a funeral this week and my comps sang at that while I played the piano...so yes mom I am playing the piano for others I even played the songs at the baptism. Well I cannot believe Viggo will be 4 years old when I get back. That is crazy to think about. I hope he got my card!
Te amo familia!
