Hiya Family!
:( Polly is dead. Did someone say "Polly's a dog!" for me before she left
this world?! Oh man, something inside me told me that she died this week. She
just kept popping in my head. :( I'm not gonna lie I'm a little sad, but I'm
glad she's not suffering anymore. It's gonna be weird coming home someday and
her not being there....
RIP Polly P. Puppers
You always had a song to sing
And you always pooped in my closet...
You will always be a dog...
May you and (Grants dog...for the life of me I can't remember his name!!)
be friends forever in heaven
God be with you til we meet again
Well in better news things here at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and
Wizardry are just brilliant. You should know....I made the quidditch team!!! It
was tough, but me and my Nimbus 2012 made it onto the team. What a dream come
true ;)
Well Mum you're right...it's my birthday in a couple of weeks and yes...i
am NOT looking forward to it. Yuck, Mom I'm getting old! Can we just skip this
one this year, just pretend like it's not my birthday...please? Please?
Ugh.
I don't need a thing! I've got my wand, my Nimbus 2012, my wonderful
family, I get to share the restored gospel with everyone! What else could a
missionary need? ins I really am good
though :) I'm just going to pretend like it's any other day. I plan on staying
23 for the rest of my life!
This week was about the same as last
week. Just keep trying to find the prepared :) I know they're there
somewhere...we just gotta find them! The amazing thing about missions is that
when you go out you expect to be changing lives. (And yes you do!) But I never
expected to be learning so much about myself and learning all these life
lessons. It's true when they say that 2 years of your mission adds up to 40
years of life experience. It's SO true!! As a missionary you are thrown into SO
MANY different situations. Different members, investigators, problems,
companions (good and bad), homes, lifestyles, everything! These moments are
going to shape the rest of my life and eternity. I am so grateful everyday for
my mission. I'm also grateful for the hard times I've had, for the refiners
fire. It's in those precious moments of heat and pressure where God mold us from
coal to diamonds. Yes, the heat and pressure are sure uncomfortable at times and
sometimes it's more than you can bare. But, if we keep enduring, keep trying, be
believing, God will mold us into the person he has always seen in us. Someone
that is better than we ever could have imagined being. Ha I've still got a lot
of heat and pressure to go. I've got so many weaknesses but I know that through
God I can be my best :) Ahh isn't the gospel great! Thats one part that I love
about the things we believe is that we can always be better. Each day is a brand
new day and we can make each day better than the one before.
I love you all so much! Thank you for your love and CONSTANT support. I
could not do it without you that is for sure!! I love you all to the moon and
back! Cheers from Hogwarts!
Love, Sister Brown
