2 MONTHS DOWN, 22 TO GO!!!

WOW. I honestly feel like I just did my 1st month update last week. It did go by a lot faster than the first month! It definitely did drag some days, but I've come to know that that's how it's going to be. Some days will be easier than others. And that is okay. I'm still adjusting, but I feel like I've gotten the hang of this. I'm proud of myself, I've stayed suuuuper busy with classes, homework, and work. I've also been getting more involved at church, and have my first lesson to teach next week!! This will be my first time EVER teaching at church. I'll be teaching in Gospel Principles, not too hard.. but I'm a little nervous. Mostly looking forward to it, though! I also got to hang out with the YSA for a movie night at Angelica's which was really fun! Then bowling yesterday with the Elders from CL1 and CL2 ward, and the YSA sisters!! It was a blast!!! Month 2 wasn't so bad, I'd say. I do miss my boy so much, it remains tough and challenging. But the Lord is blessing me with peace, and I'm so grateful for that! And I'm so grateful for my missionary for being so supportive of me always and for loving me. I'm so grateful that he makes time for me in his busy schedule to write me and reassure me. I'm the luckiest girl in the world!!! <3 I'm happy to say that I never have to do months 1 & 2 ever again!! 22 months to go, I can do this! One month at a time. It's difficult, but we can endure. Elder Mejia motivates me so much.

"I'll try to be more creative next time, you're so much more creative than me:p I cut it out and colored it red though!!" He is beyond adorable! When he first went out, I told him to send me monthly pictures like this if he had time, to go along with mine :) And he said okay and to remind him each time before we reach our next month mark.. Well this time I forgot to remind him, but he did it and sent it!! <3 I love him to pieces.
