Semana 6

Semana 6
Taco count for the week:  12
Total taco count:  51


I feel like every single week there are a million things to do and a million things that happen! 
But this week was ESPECIALLY crazy!

I will say this...
It makes things a little bit different when you have a companion that is in her very last week of the mission, and you´re at the very beginning.
We were constantly talking about home and what would be different, it made me miss everything and everyone even MORE than normal.

What a great week it was, though!

I get to brag about my amazing MAMA for a minute:)

 

It´s been hours since I dropped her off at the Bus Terminal.
I already miss her like CRAZY!!!

I didn´t cry when I said goodbye to her.

Okay...

Maybe I did.




I have my new companion now! She is from Puebla and she is 27.  Literally this is all I know about her!! Hahahaha
We haven´t had any time to talk...
But there will be plenty:)

Oh Oh Oh!!
Okay, random moment from my week:
So it has rained a bunch this week... which means... 
MORE HEAT:)
wahooooooo:)
We were walking down the street and stopped to wait to cross the street.
I felt little drops of rain and opened my arms and lifted my face to the sky.
I remember that there wasn´t a cloud in the sky, and I opened my eyes to look to see where the water was coming from.

Sure enough...
Some guy was standing on his roof.
PEEING!!

Awesome.

It´s the little moments like this that make Mexico just THE BEST:)

Life in the mission is AMAZING!  Sometimes I am still baffled that I am able to do the things I am doing!
Lessons, talks, FIRESIDES.
That I am able to somehow (always) finish ALL my food!! 
That I still haven´t gotten sick. Even a little bit.

It´s crazy how much I love Mexico!
How amazing the people are and everything!:):)




Everyone here calls me Hermana Robín
they always looks at my name and say
"OH, like Batman and Robin!!"

One of our recent converts named their dog after me......
I´m still not sure if that´s a compliment or not.  Hahaha

I have thought a lot this week about how God prepares us.  Looking back on my life and little moments that I never even thought twice about, I have realized that these were the moments that I was being prepared.

As I have focused on this I have seen it in action with the people that we are teaching:)

We had a lesson that was seriously straight from 
"The District"
I walked away from the lesson totally mind blown!!!
¿¿como...... COMO??

It´s because we have been prepared!
God knows us! We are his children.  Even we don´t realize it He is mindful of us.

So much love to all of you!! and THANK YOU so much for all the support!!

Con Amor
Hermana Robín:)
