I laughed very hard at what the scouts did with the wolves.

This week was very good. Ovidio is feeling good about his baptism, and Elizabeth is preparing for hers little by little. We still have to work really really hard to get lessons everyday and find new people, but I love being in Benidorm and know that I am here (and hna. preston too) for a reason.

One thing that you come to learn on the mission, is that you will find people that just really need people to listen to them. I feel like I have truly developed the skill of listening ha ha. Some people just need to know that you care, and they tell you everything. I know that I am such a selfish person a lot of the time, and I just wanted people to listen to me and do what I wanted. But it is wonderful to be able to listen to others, and what they need, and how we can help them. I have come to love change. I love learning things I need to change about myself, I love getting to have different companions and learn things from each of them. I will always be sad to leave an area, but it is always a change for the better, because the Lord is involved. Whenever the Lord is involved, change is going to be for the better. Maybe it doesn´t seem like it when we are in the moment, but the Lord knows what He is doing, and that without change we won´t progress as much.
Anyway, I love you all. Holly, it is ok if you have to wear braces another year...your teeth will change for the better, ha ha. At least you don´t have to wear them through almost all of highschool like I did :) Just think how beautiful your teeth will be. And remember to be respectful to people and to SMILE!!! As mom says, you are always pretty with a smile on your face. Let your light shine so that people will be drawn to you, and then to the gospel. Show people that you are happy, because I know that you are a very happy person. People always asked me, and still do, why I am so happy, and it is because of this gospel. Let people know that you are a happy person because you have and live the restored gospel of Jesus Christ!

Anyway, have a wonderful week! And by the way, I was always white wolf.
