Dear Mom,
Tell Caleb that I am way proud of him. He looks awesome, well you all do. You all have changed soo much. It`s going to be wierd when I come back home and see you all. Tell Grandma that I love her. Tell Caity way to go on her musical piece. I didn`t get to hear it, but I know that it was amazing. I miss you all a ton. It`s funny last night I had a dream that I was home. Lets just say it was one of those wierd dreams, just because I was home again. I still feel like I`m going to be a missionary for the rest of my life.
I would have to agree, we do have a pretty amazing ward. Has the ward changed a lot or are there still a lot of the same people there?
Yea that would be really hard not to go on the beach, especialy if you were in Hawaii. You were next to the beach in your mission!? Way cool. Did it ever snow when you were on the beach over there?
Things still have been a little rough here. But when you have been on a mission for as long as have you have experienced just about everything. The rough times are hard, but you always know that there will be better times coming up. We just work hard, do all we can, and wait for the blessing. Something that I have learned is that baptisms are blessings to us as missionaries, we do all we can, but in the end they are blessings to us. The whole experience of the mission is to help us learn and sometimes that requires us to be patient while the Lord works with us.
So this past week I had a fun experience. On Friday morning I went to go donate blood. It is a long process here. We were at the hospital at 6:30 a.m. and I waited till 11:30 to donated, which took me 15 minutes to do. Then I went back to our apartment. Slept for a bit and then at 4:00 we went to a funeral service. Little did I know I was going to direct the service. So we got there a little late, because I was moving slowly, I asked a few members if the bishop had arrived they told me no, and that we were suppossed to guide the service. So on the spot, in front of everyone I came up with a program, guided the music, and offered the dedicatory prayer. Then to finish it all off, I filled half the grave. When you are the biggest person there you tend to do mush of the work. So did that and then went to a ward party, then went home. That whole day I only ate one sandwich, a taco, two apples, gatorade, and some cookies. Not the best idea, because the next day I slept half the day for being so tired. Then a Sister, at a food appointment gave me honey, and that cured me on the spot. I learned that when giving blood I should always eat well. I`m a lot better now. I`m back to normal.
The rest of week hasn`t been too exciting. We keep going hard to get those blessings.
I love you Mom. Thank you for everything.
Love your son,
Cameron
