Holaa!
Well, this week was pretty fun! There is a recent convert, named Mandell. He is so awesome! For his birthday, all he wanted was for his mom to come to church and to let the missionaries teach her. So she came but... holy crap watch out! She was not happy about it! I thought she was going to kill someone when she came! I knew we were going to have trouble bringing the spirit into the lesson if she was going to be like this! After church, I prayed pretty much the whole way to the lesson! Once we started, it was just what I expected... She was trying to tell us we are waisting our time and Mandell always has time to change his mind. We just kept bearing testimony and telling her what the mission was all about. Then we got into lesson one and she just kinda sat there.Then lesson two, Mandell wanted us to teach both. Once we got to our life here on earth, she said, "well how are we supposed to be happy if everyone else around us is mad and there is so much negative in the world?" I started bearing testimony again and telling her what I know to be true about this life and..... crap I'm a little baby. She started crying, then my comp started crying, then Mandell lost it, then the members that went with us fell apart. haha! It was just a huge cry fest after that. She really had a glow in her eyes after that and she really showed that her heart was touched. she felt the spirit and it was night and day from the time she went into the lesson and when we left. She thanked us and told us to come back.. It was awesome! So anyways! I can actually make 2 phone calls if needed for Mother's Day. Sunday, I can call after church which is like 2 to 3ish so 1 or 2 your time. Then I can call dad after I talk to you. I talked to the Pres and he said that would be fine. Whatever works best. I can't wait to play with that dog (Preslee)! I'm going to take her from Brielle! haha Well I love all of you. I hope things are going great! I can't wait to call this weekend! I will contact you if there is any changes! :) I have my ways

Love Elder Naylor
