Kumusta Everyone :)
Its the hottest time here so it really does feel like its Christmas in July :P pero I am doing great with my kids. I am going to be honest, it is a bit of a challenge with 2 kids :P So my thoughts go out to all my aunts and uncles who have twins :) You are amazing :) I would name you all out but I am short on time so I hope you know who you are :) The work has been relatively hard this week, but as a missionary you look at trials like this in a different perspective for growth, not to take you down. I like the quote, "Heavenly Father doesn't drag you through deep water to drown you but to cleanse you" :) I don't know who its from, but it is good. I have grown closer unto to him because of my trials :) I always just keep a smile on my face :) I just think of Jesus Christ :) I don't think you really have feeling towards holidays while on a mission. It doesn't feel like Christmas to me because everyday is parang (as) Christmas :) It is sometimes hard not to get a little homesick :p I miss everyone, I do :) I hope everyone will not focus on the presents and gifts but the true meaning of Christmas, Jesus Christ :) Merry Christmas to everyone :)
Oh I almost forgot, we are having 2 baptisms on the 21st :) I am so happy for them :) Brother A and Brother B :) Brother A is already the best fellowshipper :) I am excited :) Well I love you all :) Makaroon isang maligayang pasko chaca isang magandang bagong taong :) (Have a merry Christmas and a good new year!)
Love
