Yes I get to hold George first!!!! For a really long time :) Catching up on the blog was on my list so I am trying to be better I might do smaller posts but more often to make it up. A simple miracle describes today. Nothing huge happened but a lot of little things did. I woke up early after not really sleeping last night and went to breakfast to say goodbye to Mommy, Daddy and Julie. Had a normal day of classes but just felt happier today. (I think family was my rejuvenation!) These next 2 weeks will be kinda crazy with finals, projects due that I haven't started but thought of, applying for HEFY, figuring out Malawi, making sure that I am in the right major, should I double major, grad school, interns, what I want to do with my life, what will I do spring and summer, figuring out my schedule for next semester, if I get a job I want it to do with something that will benefit me and then still trying to be social, make friends and maybe go on dates... Oh and then I was feeling a bit guilty for not really staying in touch with people from the mission for a while.
Today I found out that one of my investigators that I had taught for about 7months finally got baptized over the weekend by one of my favorite elders. I was so happy for her! So I messaged her, then another woman that was less active. I read 3 articles and got 100% on the quizzes, finished a paper, had an appointment with a counselor (I found out that I would do well with military and landscape management, medical services would bring me the least satisfaction according to this test I took) Well, I realized that I am going to have to do a lot of research to figure it out. But now it is night and I am tired and still have more to do but I still feel happy- I didnt get everything done, but gosh I did a lot. I am in the process of applying for HEFY now and finishing up a blog post even if it isn't the greatest. I am very grateful for the family we have- we aren't perfect but we build a lot more often than we tear down. I love you all! Don't know what it is in the air but I feel a bit more optimistic about life even though I still have nothing figured out. To me that is a simple miracle!
