Hey mom!
Thanks SO MUCH for the package! I loved it!!!! The Calendar is great! And all the pics and photo album!! :) just great! Thank you so much! The shirt is great too! Good to hear you are doing better.... I've actually been sick with the flu the last couple days :( totally sucks. But I'm feeling much better. The zone leaders gave me a blessing last night and the ward missionary leader and some members have brought over soup and medicine. So that was nice. Well I am in Miliani my companion is Sister Teururu. She is from one of the Micronesian islands. She only has 2 more transfers left so we both think we'll be comps for 2 transfers. She's really been taking care of me, I feel bad cuz we've been stuck at the pad for awhile. :( The area is dead. We have no investigators or appointments set up. So there is a lot of work to do, no time to be sick. So no matter what tomorrow we're getting to work. I should feel better by then anyway. We had to deliver some things to Sister Sandoval in Laie and I met Sister Pinder.... I think Grandma and Grandpa Hillyard talked to her at the Visitor Center while they were here. She said someone asked if she knew a Sister Brough. So that would be cool. I'm sad to hear about Chris Lowe.... do I know him? Well..... just a background..... Sister Dalton told me yesterday that a very special sister needed to be called to have sister T as a comp..... yup, I'm the only Sister that can drive that can handle her. She is crazy and out of control but so far it's been really nice. so hopefully it will stay that way. Pray for me! I'm really bummed to leave Maui... it was really hard. But I'll hopefully get called to serve there again. I have a feeling I'll be here for the next 6 months though. The ward seems great. A lot of return missionaries. The Bishopric isn't very missionary oriented so that'll be hard. Just a lot of work to do. I do feel like I am suppose to be at this area, so I'm excited to see what happens. Oh mom.... when you send lil packages I was thinking of some things other than candy you can send :) dried fruit! I love dried fruit! and it's healthy! Well I attached a pic of me and Sister Teururu eating some better than you know what cake that a recent convert made. :) This was before I got sick... and maybe why I got sick??? lol. Well I love you and I'll talk to you more next week! Love you!
