Hey mom,
wow I have become so blunt, and its because of the enviorment here, they are not afraid to tell you how it is. if they dont like you they will literally say I don tlike it you, or if you have put on weight they will say you look fatter. they are so not afraid. and they speak like 4 inches away from your face, they have no personal bubble bounderaies lol its way funny, I have to stop myself from laughing in there face sometimes. I have been praying for Taleya and I think the Lord is anwsering our prayers in His own way. Just trust in the Lord, things will work out for the best. but you have to stay strong in the Gospel, dont be afraid. especially if your doing what you KNOW is right! dont not be afraid to speak upi because the Lord will give you what you need to say. I know this through this past month and excersizing my faith in Him like this. He WILL be there for you! I promise! just keep chizzling at the icerberg it will work out. and yeah... Tine sent me a letter before I left the MTC I know everything.... my heart dropped when I read it. I have emailed her, president says as long as you send you family and him a good email everyweek than it doesn't matter who else we speak to if we have enough time left. yeah tell ben and sis I said hi I cant wait to see them again. miss them alot aswell as the fam. stay strong and tell the bro's to do what they do out of love and it will be better. yeah they have lots of good food here, borshe is way good, verenicky ? I dont know how to spell it in english but it sounds like that. guess what we cranked out 2 more baptisms this week! I'll send pictures when I get them but the 2nd one was last minute on sat. with an ancient in vestigator. way cool! and we have 2 more this week! a lil old man named Valerie ( stress the first "E" it makes it sound more masculine) about 60 years old 5 ft nothing and I"m baptizing him this saturday and then the other elders have there baptism on the same day and then 2 more are sechedluled for the next week after that! we are just lining them up for the temple dedication! EVERYONE wants to work in zhytomyr lol the language I can finally understand people and its been great! we are just being Very bold with them, but not oeverbearing. funny story so the other elders were havein g a lesson and went to give a scripture about obedience and wanted to use 1 nephi 3:7 well they said 3rd Nephi 3:7 lol haha way fuuny go and read it. and I think the next couple verses after it to.well mom thats all the time I have.
