May 25, 2015

Well, 6 months has gone by and that means that I will be coming home in a year. A year today to be exact, I am coming home the 25th of May 2016. Super crazy! 

I am already 1/3 of the way through my mission and I definitely feel different, but a good different so it is ok! I feel stronger, on the inside where it really counts and I am grateful for this opportunity to change myself and also help others change their lives too. 

Also my Spanish is getting there! Still have lots of room to improve, good thing I have an hour to study every day! 

The mission is a lot different than I thought it was going to be, but it is an incredible experience that I wouldn't trade for anything. I only wish I would have prepared myself better before I left, but really the mission has prepared me so much for the rest of my life, it really highlights the things that matter in life and how we can be better in every aspect. The mission is a blessing, and I am glad I took this opportunity. 

Also, hey, Mom, could you send me some recipes please, like snicker doodles, cornbread, Reeces peanut butter banana bread, and other really good stuff pretty please!!! Also in the next package  you send me whenever that will be no rush could you send me the recipe book you made me for Christmas, I forgot it unfortunately.  I think it is still in the kitchen on the shelves. Also could you send me my gray athletic sweater that I wore all the time if you can find it? If you can't no biggie. 

Thanks for all you do for me and I love you bunches!!!!!! Also I bought some shoes so I will be taking money out of my card, just so you know why money will be taken out. 

Love you bunches and hope you get to write me for the next week!!
With buckets of love,
Brenae
