Well I actually do have something to talk about this week so let´s get started:
1. Our pension had some of her cousins kids over one night. One is 3 years
old and the other is 1. Well I was giving high fives to the 1 year old
and I was on the couch. Well then I got distracted and start talking to
my pension. Well he didn't like that so he started to smack my chest. Well I ignored him and so then he actually slapped me in the face. Well
then everyone in the room was like "OHHHHHH" and the kid just lost it
and started to cry hysterically in my chest. Because our rules state
that we can´t really have contact like that with kids I was all like,
what do I do with this kid because he was literally hanging on me. One half
of me wanted to just hold him but the other half was trying to hold me
back from doing it. So tough.
2. We had a ward mission night
this last Thursday and.......... nobody showed up. LOL. The ward mission
leader thought that I was super mad and was all like can I buy you a
drink and I was all like what? No. I´m not mad.
Well
this week was a bit better. My companion literally thinks that I´m
still a baby (mission talk for someone in their training) and that he
"needs to fix his companion (me)". No way jose. But anyways I think
that the highlight for me this week was that this pastor from this other
church invited me and my companion over for some lunch. We basically
talked and just got to get to know each others churches and what we do.
But I think the best part is that when they found out that I had no
experience with Spanish before my mission and that I only had 4 months
here they were super surprised at my Spanish. They said it was really
good. Afterwards I was doing the head bob thing and saying "that´s
right! I can speak Spanish!"
I miss you all tons,
