The Fam!

So I feel really good, cause now I know that I have a real family, not just some picture, or far off memory, or words on a screen, but REAL people with real voices!!! I was so awesome to talk you guys, even though Elder Howard keep coming up and scaring me straight, it was really good! So this week has been very interesting, so as some of you know that I am in a threesome, in two huge exploding areas! They are gowing sooooo fast and the quartiers are huge, half of lomé, and there are only three of us and so we are literally running to get to appointments, and eating whatever we find! So crazy and tiring, and hard and hard, but through it all you learn and grow sooooooooooooo much so fast and you learn to enjoy it all, I hope things never become easy again! So x-mas was wierd, we made crepes to keep the Lee tradition alive, the ice cream in Africa is really expensive, but worth it! So today is new years eve, and people are getting ready to part, wow the markets are nuts with people buying yingyahms, fish, alochol to celebrate the new year, I hear that this fest is huge, all the goats and chickens, have mysteriously disappeared into a piles of bloody meat, suspisously next to  an african style barbeque! I dunno we have too many investigators, can you say that? Its hard to plan for all of them and keep going but we are aided so much by a divine power, you see it every lesson, something different that God did to prepare them for us THAT day! Well I will tell a funny story, so I was drawing a diagram is the dirt about the first lesson, and I was sitting on, this little little stool, and I was being all animated about it, I was a the point where I was explaining that after christ prepared the chemin and after wicked men came and destroyed this chemin, totally erasing it off the face of the earth, I kinda lost my balance and like fell backwards onto my back, its hard to explain, but it was really funny, but the understood it and remembered the principle of the only way back to god was completely destroyed with the death of the apostles, then later that day I read in alma 24:27 where is says the lord worketh in many ways for the salvation of his people, and it made me laugh!   Well I think I should get going, all is well among the saints here in Zion! I love the work, I love the Lord, I love my family, and I love my tesimony! Anyways have a good new year and know that I love you guys and always remember who you are!!!

love elderly
