As I have loved you...

Daniela Guilante on the left, Daniela Arcila on the Right.
We played many games, five or six. It was great!
Martha my visiting teacher on the left. Relief society president Rosita in the yellow on the Right.
Tami came over for the shower and helped me with translating the whole time.
The food was fantastic, Loved the tostada, a spice cake, rice pudding, and a lemon cake. It was just delicioso.
Truly spoiled, and tired after the four hour baby shower.
....Love one another
When asked how the baby was doing, Thomas mentioned to my visiting teacher that we may be having her a little early. Immediately she said she would support us. By the time we were out of our church meetings, the relief society had planned a time, place,some food, games, and a ride for me to my own baby shower to take place a couple of days later. While at the shower they spent at least one hour discussing every possible way to help me. From help with the kids, to dinners, to picking up my family from the airport if necessary, to bathing the baby.
This is it, this is the love He has spoken of.

  1. How sweet! What wonderful women that you have to take care of you! I was wondering if you are learning the language at all?

  3. I understand a lot more Spanish than i can speak, but i am trying to learn. I just practice with my i-pod. But Kirtlyn, my oldest, got so good in school this year, that she only uses Spanish words with her Mexican friends. I hope we can keep up with that progress!
    It is good to hear that you are working on applying! I am really looking forward to helping you guys, and doing what ever we can to try to make you our neighbors! Let us know, what ever you need!!

  4. It makes me so happy that you have such good friends and loving sisters to help you. I wish we could be there, but we probably wouldn't be as much help as your friends will be. Give them our love, too, and our gratitude.
