Hey Mom

My week has been great. Yes I have a cable for my camera, I think that my inhaler should last long enough, and no I do not remember the measurements for my table. If you do measure it I was thinking of getting the glass cut a 1/16 inch shorter just to be safe. I also think that the squares may not be perfect squares, so you would have to check.

As for my week. The language is coming. I still have tons to learn, but I can now piece sentences together. It is a tough language, but the lord has definitely helped with it. Let kadin know that I am praying for him, as well as the rest of the family. But him that he will stop having stomach pains. Thanks for the package of stuff, I love getting mail. Gloria sent me a pie tin full of pumpkin chocolate chip cookies, they were gone in less than an hour. My district loved them. So the elders in my district are amazing. It has been cool seeing their personalities come out now that we are starting to get comfortable with each other. I still don't think that it has hit me that I am on my mission. It probably wont until I get to Madagascar. I am not looking forward to the trip though. I have heard that we fly from Salt Lake to New York, Then to London, Then Johannesburg, than to Madagascar. It is going to be a long 2 days. I don't remember if I told you, but we leave on the 18th of August so that we can arrive in Madagascar on the 20th.

I don't have any new stories to tell. Every day seems to be the exact same. Although they are going by very fast now. Oh one thing that my district does every night when we walk back to our residence we sing. It is great because the other missionaries join in as we walk by them. We still have not had any General Authorities come and speak to us, except for a member of the quorum of the 70. They have all been very good devotionals though. I love going to them. I never thought that I would say that. Oh and what is a CT scan, kadin did not explain it at all. I don't think that I have anything else to write about. I am going to try and send some pictures in an email. Love You.
