Groundhog's Day

Okay, first and foremost. I hope everyone had a wonderful Groundhog´s day and that you all got to celebrate my favorite holiday with sunshine and the little groundhog saying spring was coming six weeks early. I tried to explan to Sister Prieto what is groundhog´s day, but she didnt really get it, and it ended with me basically saying, ´It´s basically this big rat that lives in the ground and comes out and if it has a shadow....or doesnt...im not really sure which, it means spring is coming! long pause.....I just really like the sun okay?`

I mean, I could totally do without the CONSTANT rain and freezing weather and lack of sunshine, but I really love Porto, this ward and our members. Our area presidency talked at stake conference this week and so did M. Russell Ballard, and I got SO excited for General Conference. Also, he talked about the basic things that we need to do everyday so that we can just keep going and learning and receiving revelation and being worthy of the Spirit. Oh, they really are so basic, but sooo important. And when you stop doing one, you stop doing the next and then before you know it, you stop doing everything all together, so I hope you are all doing your family home evening and reading your scriptures and saying your prayers. Also, go to the temple for me.

I LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU DEARLY!!!
