UGH so we tried standin up anyway but his foot came up anyway 4 times later him sitting on the ground and me kneeling we finally did it. it was a cool experience but not gonna lie kinda embarassing. we are workin with their parents now but we shall see what happens im pretty sure the mom will get baptised but the dad we still arent sure about he will kinda listen to us now but we are still workin. best and worst part, idk honestly best was the baptism forsure ummm worst idk there really wasnt a bad day this week.words of wisdom ha idk just tell him to have fun, put all his trust in the lord and to love what he is doin. really thats all i got besides start studyin the book of mormon and what not. so comin and pickin me up idk if we will be able to do that cuz of school... i guess it depends on when it starts. as soon as you can i want you to sign me up for school ha cuz i know im gonna want to extend my time but if i do i wont get to school for another semester and i will go crazy and i definatly feel like im gonna need to start ASAP haha. i knew elder francis would be a hard worker and i know elder klien is too. they are awesome elders. whats happened with joses fam? i can see elder klein bein all crazy bout winning haha he is like me with that kind of stuff, its kinda funny. we are gonna have to keep in touch with them and their families for ever. ha im glad your card finally came i was kinda worried it wouldnt the mail is kinda crazy. im sooooo excited for jose and i hope the temple will be open. he is sooooooo awesome, tell him i am sooooooo proud of him! here is about the same we are teachin a few families and got a new one recently. there is a 16 year old girl that read 3 chapters of the Book of Mormon the first time we left her with one it was awesome and the rest of her fam which is her mom brother and little sister are doin good too. thats really all thats new here i only have like one pic for you tho sorry... i love you all and cant wait to hear from you again.
