Well family this week has been really good! So something interesting about my area is that in the last year it has had only 5 baptisms in the last year and a half! It isnt hard to have investigadores but its really hard to them progressing! I love this work! I feel really tired but i couldnt feel any better! I have felt the spirit really strongly! This place is really special and i know that president and the savior are very proud of me! I love these people! They are always telling me that they want me to finish my mission here! They really are just soo loving! So we have been going to the gym like everyday and we have been doing a lot more service! So this last week we shared with the guy named Julio and he has been a member for the church for 20 and some years but he has a lot of health problems and forgets a lot of stuff! The doctor told him that he only had three months to live so its pretty hard! I have gotton to close to him! And so its been really difficult for me! It makes me think of grandma and im not sure why! We share with him every friday because he siad he doesnt want to lose his testimony! I love these people with all my heart! I love this work! I know that it is true! We have been so blessed in this life! The Gosple of Jesus Cristo is true and blesses those who are faithful to his commandments! I challenge each of you to make the changes that you may need to change! Through out my mission i have felt soo close to my savior and the spirit! I want you guys to feel that same peace! Mom this is for you now! I love you sooo much and hope that you can feel better! I want you  to know that you have been a wonderful example for us kids! You are the best mom in the world and miss you more than you can imagine! The lord loves you soooo much!! 

Alyssa I hope that you had a great birthday and that you can have another great year! I love you soo much! Please stay strong in everything that you do! I want to be able to have the entire family there in the celestial kingdom!
