Number 4 e-mail

Good morning everyone! Here is the email that we received from Hope today: Dear Mom, Sorry it has taken me so long to reply to your letters . But it  is very green and lush like you guessed. the other day on Thursday it rained so hard that me and my companion ended up swimming down the road haha ok it wasn't that deep but it did go just above my knees. I wish you could hear from me more often as well.  life is so crazy i can't even explain. yes the time difference is 14 hours. usually we email at noon here well between noon and 1 but today we did service for 3 hours instead of just one. I am so glad to hear that the back yard is tilled. I bet it looks so much better. I bet Scotty was so excited for track and field day, I know how much he loved it in school. I am so relieved to hear all my packages arrived safely. I loved the quotes you sent me especially about the fridge light. so the only time i get mail is if someone from the mission home happens to be coming to my area. so it isn't that often ! Kaula Pork sounds so good! I bet it was deliciosu! so yesterday I tried 3 new things Pansit yummy, Miki yummy and then Shang hei something or other. so you also had chocolate pie! oh how I miss chocolate, the chocolate here is NO BUENO, Nas to the T! Yes Dad is such a hard worker that is for sure! I am so greatful for him, I just love my Daddy so much! Ok keep my white skirt safe until I get back! I also loved the quote about patting someone on the head with a bat haha! ok those were replys to the dear elders from May 22. the reply for the May 26 is now... This area is treating me pretty well, yesterday one of my investigators  finally came to church. she came to church and she brought her cute cute baby (this is the lady that waited 10 years to have a baby) anywho I was so happy I almost cried for joy! so earlier today we went and did service who was just baptized the other day anyways we helped re-build her house and I got to use a water-well thing it was great I got a great ab work out haha. After we did service my whole district (all 8 of us) went and stuffed face at mcdonalds, I know I know, coming all the way here to eat mcd but it was pretty foreign to me! they serve alot of friend chicken and rice. Oh last P-day we went to a reastrant and I got Tapa is was sooo deliciosu! the most awesome thing so far is the people by far! they are so great! yesterday we worked with a family and a single investigator ha and they are all so nice I love working with the members! especially since i got to ride in that thing i sent a picture of me in. me and another sister was teaching me tagalog and she made me try all these f things and they were actually very good! i can't remember if i told you all the things I at but it was Pansit, Miki, Shang Hai, and Tapa. ok the dear elder schedule I have no idea how that is. but now I am just gonna tell you about other stuff cause that's all I wrote and I left my letters at my house but we have a baptism this saturday. and then we have 2 more the next saturday its a mother and a daughter and its about time thats all I can say! ok so the rain has finally been coming and it is heaven on earth it makes it so much cooler! oh guess what I taught my first lesson in justTtagalog the other day and my companion didn't even have to say anything ha it was only like 10 mins but the woman understood what i meant and what i commited her to do it was so great! Ok so the other day i went on companion exchanges and so I had to wake up a 5 to go to the bus station it was early but it wasn't too bad, i was with a siter from another city and she is so nice, she helped me alot ha and that night i was walking with one of her room mates who i met in the MTC and i was just walking along and i stepped in something slick and went sliding I turned to see what it was and it was POOP,I almost broke my neckIi slid so far.. the sister I was walking with another Sister  was laughing so hard and so was i it was so disgustiong! sorry for all the spelling errors I am typing fast causeIi'm running out of time! but it was nice to work with an American for that day i understodd alot of what she was saying cause its the Tagalog i know. so i had an interview with the president the other day and he just informed me that I may be training on the first so I need to prepare for that.... awww. I can't remember all the things i wanted to write to you but I'll write it all down and send it next week! and plus I have pictures to send to you! Love you Love you! Here are some pictures she sent:

Hope also wrote this in a smaller email today,had answered some questions to me and then wrote thiS: The place that she is referring to is the Mission Home:~~~ I don't know when I get to go back there again. So I might be training in 2 weeks scary right? Cause we have so many new ones coming. So now there are 35 sisters in the mission and on the 1st of July we get 25 more so that means only 10 sisters won't be training... I don't know if I am ready to train yet. Cause if I train an American it won't go very well at all! so I could be there on the first of July. Here are more pictures that she sent:

So as you all can see our Missionary is doing great! The picture of her my the water is the South China Sea! And the picture of the food, she didn't try, I wish she had, someone had told her that is was good, and when someone tells her that, she won't try it! I haope that you enjoyed this Post today!
