temple lovin

Family! Hello beauties! 

So the highlight of this week was going to the temple with Maria to receive her endowment! Ah..so special. I am so proud of her...she is amazing. I hope you all can meet her one day!! I will show you pics when i get home. ;) Well i marked something off my mission bucket list-- ask a woman which prison her husband is in door approach. yes, it was very sad and just one of those missionary things you are asked to do haha. Good news, we found out the prison! Success. Another part of this week...aye aye aye...i am now referred to as a New York driver. Scary, i know. We were with the Hartricks last night and i was following them to the fireside and accidently ran a red light and they wouldn't let me forget it! haha. ps they will be in Utah when i am home so we have to meet up with them!!! also, i got in another very minor accident. Stinkin neighbor was parked in the middle of our street and i bumped her bumper. But this story, is from the Lord...because he works in mysterious ways. As soon as i hit her and see sister cienfuegos in the bad window screaming stop!! i just thought, nice. another one within a month. then, not one frustration went towards the accident, but what happened is i just started crying. yes, crying! i haven't done that in a while. so all my thoughts, worries, emotions came running out. tender mercy! then the peeps that we hit were being a little ridiculous and called the cops and all that fun stuff and trying to rip us off. but good news is, i don't have to pay!! and no one was near hurt. then after we had an appointment so we called to tell her we were going to be late and she was like oh don't worry! you need some good food, come over after! and that ended up working out perfectly and it was a much needed night. then she gave us both a brand new shirt?? so sweet. this week was a lot of future thinking, seeing mothers being mothers and going through hard times with their kids, flash forwarding to when im at that point and i am just overwhelmed with gratitude for mothers. Its made me learn a little bit more of the love heavenly father as for each of us, his children. i am so grateful for a loving heavenly father who knows just what we need, when we need it. i love you all dearly!
