The work is exploding!

this week FLEW i cant even begin to explain how fast it went. haha If you have to count down to mother's day dont go crazy counting then, it seems weird to me im gonna call again so fast. i have no idea when or where we will be calling from sooo sorry, if you give me a cell # i can call one of those first or something idk ha. we cant do skype sorry... that is soooo awesome im stoked for kade, he will not regret going. im so excited for keg! that is sooo awesome im freaking out inside for him haha.i sent KaLee a letter last monday so idk whats going on... i didnt know about the patriartical blessing, thats sooo cool. idk the actual address of my apartment so just send stuff to the mission home its ok. but yeah it is the one behind the taco bell. me and elder cuenca are doing great, the work is EXPLODING. we had a baptism last saturday with a lady named alma oh wow it was amazing she was sooo ready and the spirit was so strong. you could see the difference in her. we have 2 baptisms not this coming saturday but the next and then we have 1 on the 7th of may and 4 on the 14th of may!!! its soo amazing we are workin our tails off here. my schedule is the same 6 am run 7 shower and eat 8 personal study 9 comp study 10 language and we eat and we are off. so investigators: we have a fam. the martinez fam they have 2 little girls and an older one and a little boy. we are teaching a lady named jaquelin who is 25 and has a 1 year old little boy named jaun but we call him pollito and he is the bomb. we are teaching a lady named alicia bautista and she is sooo awesome, she has some fam problems but they are being solved little by little and she has found such a peace in the gospel. she reads the book of mormon when her husband is watching a movie she doesnt feel is appropriate to watch, its awesome. we have a family named monroy that are awesome but are hard to get a ahold of. a guy and his wife leonardo and ignacia and they are awesome, we are going to set a date with them next lesson. we have more but i dont have a ton of time haha. so im gonna answer a couple questions yes i went to the easter pagent it is absolutely amazing and that is probably where i felt the spirit the strongest, the pagent after i get home we are all coming dow for cuz wow... and its HUUUUUUUUGE there are soooooooo many people there. il send a pic of the stage and stuff next week. So with VT,sometimes it is very hard not to be discouraged and feel like you wasted time. the thing that i love is that in preach my gospel it says "no effort is wasted" not one single one. now to help with them, next time you go over, idk if you have like a certain lesson to teach but ask them if they had a missionary experience or how maybe some piece of the gospel has helped them in their life. and before you go in next time say a prayer and ask to know "their" needs the thing we try to do is teach people, not lessons, and if we can know their needs we can help them. bah im out of time i gotta go im down to seconds i love you all sooooooo much i hope you have a great day and week!
love taylor
