☆I turned TWENTY????? literally someone please tell me how that happened?? bc sure as heck don't know how I got that oldddd...kinda had me scared it just came outta nowhere...now I can't use the teenager excuse...#lameeee:( but I literally had the happiest day ever:))))) I'm so grateful for all the texts and love I got from everyone!!! i just couldnt stop smiling all day it just was so good!!! and thennnnn guess what ???? :((((((
☆i got the cold that went around the zone!!!:(((( I thought I dodged the bullet but because we were around everyone on my bday it got to me and I was big sad:( but hey I'm almost recovered!! However for the next 5 days it's hit me like a truck bc I haven't been sick in so long and my body was not ready for it hahaha!!! 
☆we had sooooo many meetings this last week so that stunkkkk but hey we survived 
☆WE PUT DIEGO ON DATE :)))))))))) he's so cute he's from a part member family and has ADHD and Autism but literally is the sweetest and remembers so much and literally gets so calm when we teach:)) he's an angel fs fs!!!
☆we worked the fair and while at it, a member came up to us and kept trying to give us money and we were like no no it's okay well she shoves it in my pocket and before I could grab it and give it back to her she disappeared like out of thin air was no where to be seen!!! But it was $$$ and we were like ahhhh...so we got froyo haha! 
☆we were recovering on Saturday so we took it somewhat slow because we didn't feel good at all
☆church was supa good and guess who pulled up to church?? yall already know who did...EDGAR HAHAHA everytime hna creer speaks he comes hahah it's like he knows. but then our ward member like followed us around and was like hnas you can't be alone with him and we were like yeah we know and he was like you need to leave and we were like okay we out so we left ahaha yikes...grateful for the ward. then we went and worked the fair again which was supa good and thennnn 
☆TDOC DROPPED SOOOO EARLY AND GUESS WHAT????? For the first time EVER I am staying with the SAME comp and in an area for 3 TRANSFERS??!!!??? bruh idk how but God knows something needs to be done so I guess I'm out here in the valley for another one and I'm so excited AND I get to be with hna creer AND I get to be with my trainer out here in the valley too!!!!! i am so ready for this next transfer!
☆Monday was a whack day we cleaned the fair stuff up and had muchísimo meetings again and said bye to everyone leaving the zone !! Definitely have been blessed with being able to serve around some pretty amazing missionaries!!! i miss a lot of my missionary friends in different parts of the mission, but I know they are doing good and preaching the good word for sure<3 but it would be nice to have my homies back:,)
☆couldn't go without adding this last one but HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE MOST AMAZING AND STRONGEST MOM EVER!! yall I am so so so grateful for her and you already know how amazing she is!!! but I don't know who I would be without her. she has taught me to be strong and to keep going even when it is hard. She's been thru HECK and back again but I am so proud of her. She is my inspiration and I cannot wait to hug her in 7 months:,) make sure you say happy birthday to momma hotton all you missionaries:)) and everyone else too!!

little spiritual thought:
2 Nephi 4: 20 
"My God hath been my support; he hath led me through mine afflictions in the wilderness; and he hath preserved me upon the waters of the great deep."
The verses before are talking about how nephi was encompassed in sin and afflications, but thru it all, God was there to help him and give him strength. And that hit me really hard. It has not been easy whatsoever on my mission. Easy comps?? Sometimes!! Easy situations? Not so much! But that's okay!!! I am okay!!! Because HE is always near me, even tho I don't see him there. He is holding my hand and walking with me. He is placed angels in my life throughout my mission to give me peace and comfort even tho they have no idea how much they impacted my life. I know he has been my support, and I know he can be yours:)))

love you all, so very much:) like seriously. thanks for being a part of my life in some way or another.

 April 5, 2022 hola!!!! this week just kinda flew by and now we are half way thru the transfer....idk how that happened but it did haha!!  we had zone conference which is always soooo good!!! and right after we had interviews!!! interviews are always a blessing and help me out a lot. President said to me, "hermana, its life long discipleship that matters, not lifelong missionary discipleship." and that hit me like a brick...I have had to rely on God a lot this week with the stress and anxiety of a couple things but my mission president really helped out. so, if you all could pray for me and things to get better physically that would mean the world😇 despite the hard days and the rejection, there is so much good that comes from serving a mission. and I'm so grateful for it every day. it is going to be so hard to leave my mission and I don't want it to come earlier than planned!!! but I learned a lot from GENERAL CONFERENCE this weekend which was straight bars by the wa...
