Anyway. This week was good. We had two baptisms yesterday. They both asked for Elder Malapula. Which was fine with me. But it was Goodwill and Shantel. Goodwill has been taught for a LONG time. He had a problem with smoking and finally quit. I am super happy he got baptized. He is 22 but still in tenth grade. Odd thing about school system here, all grades, except twelfth, you just re-do until you pass. 

Then there was Shantel. Lives with her Gogo. Finally convinced her mom to let her get baptized. Which is sweet. She is only thirteen, but super smart. She will be a powerful convert. 

Transfers. I am staying with Elder Malapula in KaNyamazane. I think I just mentally prepared myself to leave so much that it felt kind odd that I didn't leave. But I am very happy about it. I just hope I continue to get along with Elder Malapula. He drives me crazy sometimes, but I have been trying SO hard to be kind and patient. 

To week hasn't really been that eventful. Like really, nothing happened. I hope that you aren't frustrated with the fact that this is short. But I honestly don't have much to say. 

However I do miss you A TON. But I keep thinking, time keeps moving. Each day the two year time is getting shorter and shorter! Haha! But I love you a ton. I seriously feel so bad that this is so short. But I really have like not much to say. 

Oo. I am thinking really hard to find things to tell you. So I have been drawing again. Which means I have been doodling again. Cause I can't draw real things. So you will al be getting a personalized doodle page not too far in the future! Haha! Doodling keeps me from wanting to kill people! 

Again, I love you and miss you like crazy. I will send pictures of the baptism hopefully next week. Emailing now consists of the four of us at the swans. Three on iPads and one on a computer. So I want get to have the opportunity to send pictures until it's my turn on the computers. 

Love you tons!
