Every Rose has its Throne


HIYA! 

  So I am writing you today, because moves calls/week is this week. And I am....... Staying with Elder Wright!!! :) :) So funny story behind that. We were interviewing Mandy and Chelsea for their Baptism this next Sunday and out of the blue the phone rings and it is President.... I answered the phone and he said "Elder Wright, do you want to stay or go?" More or less. And I thought to myself for a good while what I wanted to do and I said President I would love to stay! :) So we are staying together. Now you may be thinking I thought you and Elder Wright weren't the best of friends... But that was last week and its a new week! I love him. I noticed it was all my fault too.... I was telling myself why I didn't like him instead of reasons why I loved him! And the reasons why I love him out weigh the bad any day!! Isn't there a quote that says Every rose has its thorn? I am not saying that Elder Wright is good looking or anything I am just saying that he is a great bloke and he has very small or no thorns at all. :) haha *awkward* But ya so there is that :) 

  This week was pretty dang good! We were just really focusing on Mandy and Chlesea, because there baptism is this coming Sunday!!! WEHU! We saw them every single day and they are so excited about their baptism! They are "golden" investigators :) Mandy is scared of going under the water, because when she was a kid she got run over by a glass bottom boat and she could see everybody looking at her when the boat ran over her so you could say she is a bit put off about the water... Crazy story init?! But ya she will be just fine, hopefully when she gets baptized she won't freak out under the water... haha that would be a story to tell :) 

  We have invited another lady to be baptized on the 28th of June and oddly enough her name is June! I think it is meant to be :) haha She seems really promising! We taught her on Kalena's Birthday so you best believe I was testifying about how families can be together forever! :) I think that is the greatest blessing in my life right now. As terrible as that sounds. But with that you can relate to every single person! And it helps so much, because if it wasn't for that my life woulda been a whole lot easier and less trial some. In all honesty that is really the only thing that went wrong in my life. So I am so blessed! And nobody likes a missionary saying that "They can make it through anything as long as they rely on God." If they have never had to rely on God before. At the time and still to this day I am gutted about the whole experience but it blesses my life more than you could imagine! So count your many blessings! :) 

  I am loving my mission! I cannot stress that enough. This is the greatest thing that anybody could do! Yes, it may be tough sometimes. Noticed how I said sometimes, and not all the time? I live by a quote that goes life's what you make is so lets make it rock! That is from the one the only Miley Cyrus! :) haha just  kidding but those words are very true. Nobody can put you in a bad mood. You have to choose to be the way you are. I remember Dad always telling us kids that nobody could make us mad and I was like, "Girl please! You make me mad all the time!" hahah But it's so true you have to choose to act the way you do. #thetruth 

  I love you guys and thank you so much for continuing to write me! Love you to bits
