Jan 5, 2014

Dear Family,
what a week! it feels like forever since last monday. we had a great week for the most part. we found some new investigators who are super solid! one we have to be very careful with and might take some time teaching, but the other is 18 years old and has so many bright questions about the gospel. there is nothing else that i love to see more than young people (younger than me) asking all these questions about afterlife and prophets and how to receive answers to prayers! i love being able to turn to the scriptures and say this is how you know and this is what a prophet is. as we were in companion study this week i shared tons of scriptures and then shyly apologized because we were suppose to only share what we learned and i took forever sharing all these amazing scriptures, adn i explained to my companion that i dont know how to speak unless i am quoting a scripture or using one to describe how i feel. i honestly wasn't really sorry for sharing the scriptures and she told me i shouldn't be. but the point is that when we teach i love turning to the scriptures, they are my foundation without them i feel lost. so great new investigators, helps my mind stay away from the sad thoughts i have about what this month really represents. i know carson is wating for all of us, that i am 100% sure of, he is constantly in my thoughts and i miss him. But his memories often allow me to push forward. I love you all very much and keep you in my prayers everyday. tell brett congrats, i love the name liam!! there is a little boy named liam in this ward and he is this cute little tazmanian devil, so hopefully bretts liam doesnt turn out the same way! each day is a journey and each one worth going through, by the end of the day it honestly feels like a year has passed away, and im glad i was able to capture the moments! capture the moments! Happy New Year!!
Love you all, Sister Hadley
