Saluds de Peru! - 12-May-2014

Elder Henriquez es aca! He followed me from Tarapoto. My old district leader is now the Zone Leader of the other Zone here! He is the coolest, i`ve already learned so much from him and his testimony of the power of the Book of Mormon. So that`s WAY fun.
also, FELIZ DIA DE MADRE! para, grandma talbert, makemson, MOM todo de mis tias, and all the moms from work, like bakers peak, and MOMS TIMEOUT and Mrs. Gibson and KATHY KLINGERMAN, wow, shes the coolest. and Hermana Dunford, and HErmana Ellis, Hermana Schulte, i could go on...but in summary, hay una escritura that talks about the fruits of the spirit. If it is a good seed, a good beginning, it was bring forth only good things. I can recognize good mothers, by their children. All of these mothers have worked, are working so hard to raise a family, a happy family. And Their children are the BEST. especially the children of my mom ;) haha, no lo siento. But besides their fruits, and their efforts, these women, the mothers of the world deserve so much love and respect for who they have chosen to be. In the bible dictionary, or in spanish scriptures el guia de las escrituras, the definition for Madre, Mother, says...`El titulo sagrado de la mujer que da a luz o adopta hijos`. The name mother, is sacred. and it indicates that you have been chosen to help the Lord bring to pass his eternal plan for every one of us. Thank you mothers!
i don`t think i said it well enough, or enough times last night, disculpa Mami. Seriously, you are such an example to me! Dad must`ve been SO obedient, to recieve a blessing such as you. Bien hecho, dad. i´m sorry i coudlnt have been there to try and make you breakfast in bed, or write a a beautifully sweet, tear jerking poem, but i`ll make up for it and the next mothers day in 2014, in years to come. All i can do now is hope you had a GREAT day! and know that you are not just any other woman, not just any other mother. You are mine! and you are a strength to more children than just the 6 of us. You are an influence in the lives of so many more! and i hope that you never feel disappointed, or feel alone, or feel insufficiente, because YOU are a pride to me, because YOU have dad, siempre! and us, your children, and your Heavenly Father, who is SO proud of who you are and who you are learning to become through your immense faith. and NEver feel insufficiente, because you are everything you need to be and more. You`re perfect for our family. I love you so much mom! And I miss you and our family, and JAke, but I am so happy here, and I hope i´m making you proud too! I hope you had a great day, and i hope you have a GREAT semana, and a strengthening year. FEliz dia de madres!!!
Wow, like i really wish i could explain my weeks better. Next time ´ll bring my journal and jot down the highlights of my week. I just sometimes have el mente de pollo, and it doesnt help that these weeks go by in a FLASH!. seriously, so so fast. I`ll work on that this week.
Well, haha, i really dont know what else to say.
i hope everyone is doing well. reading their scriptures, paying tithing, going to church and praying. It`s really the little things that count. Alma 37:7.
Cuidence, les quiero tanto

Ok so, we have a photo of.....our distrito! We were showing them a family we had found, which was in their area, and while we were walking to lunch, we saw this sweet, well organized tree farm. Like a tamed chacra. Then we have me crossing the sketchy puente, in our shortcut between areas. It literally saves us like 45 minutes to use this and approx. 6 soles, woohoo! Except when it rains we can`t enter through the walls on the other sides, so thats a downer. then....i forgot what this other picture was.......oh yea! Feliz CUmpleanos and merry christmas to me! in may.....Wow, it was SO great to get a package. Love the mints, i eat them like every second and yes, i gave mi companera the duplicates of things, she really appreciated the lantern, because she`s scared of the dark, in our room, when we`re sleeping. so glad she has that now! 
YAY cumpleanos! This was one of the 3 cakes we ate yesterday.
aaand this tortuga is going to be our soup tonight for cena.
We watched the video of Hermano Humberto killing it, wow, it was actually SO sad, but they found it near the rio, and brought it home and..yea, made plans to make a dinner out of him.
