¡Hola! I am doing superb! Actually, my toe isn´t fully better... I have been trying to take out the toe nail from the sides but it is not working very well... I think it´s just because my skin started to grow on the sides because there was no nail and now the nail is just pushing back to where it is supposed to be. I don´t know. It doesn´t hurt super bad and it´s almost grown all the way so we´ll see in a little if it will grow normal.
Wow, it is hard to think. It is hard to think in Spanish and English. I don´t know either language very well haha. ;) Actually, my Spanish is coming along quite well. I feel that I am learning very quickly and that I am only learning this quickly because of the help of the Spirit and the gift of tongues. there is still so much I need to practice and learn, but I feel that I am doing very well. It´s actually kind of interesting because almost every missionary that goes Spanish speaking has told me before the mission that the hardest thing was figuring out the break between words. But for me that isn´t really the problem. Sometimes it is because (especially here in the coast) people talk very lazily and have a funny accent so words kind of blur together. But most of the time the reason I don´t understand is when they use words I don´t know. I can understand practically everything (well if they talk somewhat clear haha). The thing I need to work on is speaking fast and still practicing the flipping conjugations haha. Especially the subjunctive conjugations... Other than that my Spanish is coming very well.
This work is going great! I am actually a little sad because we didn´t have our baptism this last week. We needed to get the permission from Hna Valentina´s dad, but he is a very hard Catholic and did not want her getting baptized. So all we can do now with her is be patient and keep praying that her dad´s heart will be softened. We will be having a baptism this week for sure though! His name is Hermano Roberto. He is so awesome! He progressed so quickly and whenever he had problems he took care of them quickly. He is just superb.
I can´t believe that I already have 2 and a half months here in the mission! It is so crazy! Time really flies so fast out here! Especially now as I have been starting to focus and find my purpose as a missionary. The work is going so well and I am loving this people so much. It is still very hot here even though it is almost Christmas time. I miss the cold. I miss snow. But oh well, can´t do nuttin' about it haha. ;)
Well, I have got to go now. I´m hoping we will have more time this afternoon to write. We are going to Barranquilla to go bowling as a district so we will be gone most of the day and so we were hoping to half a half hour to write in the morning and a half hour in the afternoon.
I love you so much and thank you for everything and for the music and to do! You are the best momoo ever! Oh! I had totally forgot that Robby was already leaving! I thought it was this next week. Tell his family hi and that I wish him the best! I will write to him real quick.
Love ya!

¡Paz fuera!
