I just want to begin and say my 20th birthday was amazing. I'm so grateful to have such a wonderful family that takes care of me. I loved everything I got. I'm actually wearing one of the new light blue shirts that I got right now. And then I used some of the lemon head candy's to bribe the little kids at church to like me. I feel like I'm back in the 1st stages with Brooklynn back in the day when I was home. I'm glad Brooklynn taught me how to bribe little kids to like me because now I got the little ones giving my high five's when I go to church. So little Brooky... thanks =) I don't know what I'm going to do when I get home when there is going to be a complete other family of little people running around. But that's not a bad thing. Its actually a very good thing because our family is so awesome and I'm sure God feels that way to so he trusts us with more of his little ones. Not only that but he also trusts us with the way cute one's.
So this week has been pretty exciting. We finally got in to the juvenile correction center that has been trying to meet missionary's for 9 months. I have been tying to get in there for 8 weeks so pretty much the moment I got here. I have been finding all these members of our church trying to get them to talk to the religious coordinator there and nothing was working. So God decided to help me out and led us randomly into the middle of nowhere with tree's and mountains everywhere. So we knocked on this guys house and he happen to be one of the main managers of the facility and now we are actually really good friends with him. So he gave us the hook ups that we needed and we finally ended up making it there to the kid that wanted to speak with us. It was quit an amazing experience how God just made everything work. Terry Lewis is the guy that we tracted to and God really did just soften his heart for us so that he didn't make us do fingure prints or anything to get in. He told us "You know I havent really ever done this but... I understand that you missionaries get transferred about every 6 weeks so I talked with the boss and asked if it was ok for you guys to come in every Wednesday to speak with this kid with out the prints" So his boss told him it was ok so we are now meeting with him every Wednesday. Not going to lie though... It was a little scary when we were in there. They had 3 body guards around us almost the whole time. =)
well i have to go. I love you so much. =)
