Dear all you people who are either in upstate New York bearing my
burden of the cold and snow (or worse) and those who are back west or across the
world who are in the warmer weather!
I got to transfers this last Wednesday, and I found a box from grandma and
grandpa and I found 6 letters to accompany it. While we were eating lunch in
Utica for transfers, I had 3 different missionaries tell me that I got 4
packages instead of just the one I found. Sure enough, I walked over to the
other tables and saw 2 packages from Mom and a package from Aunt Susie as well!
It truly blew my mind and other missionaries minds as I tried to walk out to the
car, that was taking me to my next area, with 4 packages and 6 letters in my
hands along with all my luggage (I did get help don't worry haha) I am so
grateful for all those who have willingly sent me packages for my last Christmas
on my mission right before I go home. I will admit that I do feel bad for being
prideful and complaining about the lack of mail I had received the previous
transfer... I kinda felt like I made them send me mail.... :/ I am still very
grateful for it and I am excited to see what lies inside with all the things I
did receive! You all are super awesome and I don't know how I can repay you
guys.
For all of you who keep asking me about how I feel about going home and
what is running thourgh my head, I will tell ya. :) I have mixed feelings about going home, over all though
I am excited to see all the family I have missed that I have been now blessed to
be able to live closer to and be able to see them much more often when I come
home! I am also sad to leave the people I love so dearly here that I have been
able to interact with through out the last 2 years, but am so great full and
blessed that we have Facebook to keep in touch and cell phones so that constant
support and communication is much faster and more convenient for all of
us!
The Lord is truly hastening his work, and I feel so blessed to be apart of
it now and forever! I hope and pray that the Lord will bless all of you this
week whether is be sunny skies, or skies of grey and snow like here in Amsterdam
New York, that you will continually feel the warmth and brightness, love, and
comfort the spirit can bring not just for this time of year but always!

Love
Ya's!
