Busy, Busy Busy...

I have 1 year in the mission today. That is so crazy... the time is going by so fast. I hear that after one year it goes by even faster. That makes me sad, I don’t want to go home I love being a missionary! So this was a really crazy week. Marina got married on Thursday she looked so pretty. We did her hair and make up. She was baptised Saturday and Sunday received the gift of the holy ghost. It was amazing! She is sooo happy, and so am I. We just put a baptism date for her kids for December 20th. They are a little crazy but they are just being kids. They are reading the Book of Mormon every day together as a family. I just love them so much. I'm so grateful that I was able to help them find the gospel. I just love helping God in this great work, to help his children return to him. Hna Perezlindo went home. That is so crazy. It was really hard to say good bye to her. We were together for 4 and a half months. That almost never happens the most is like 3 months. It was great, I learned a lot with her and I'm going to miss her a lot. I'm now a mom, I'm training... I cried when I found out I was going to train. My Spanish still is not all that great and I was scared that I wasn't going to understand everything or the people weren't going to understand me. These last 3 months I have been speaking only in Spanish. This has helped me out a lot. I am doing a lot better now. I'm excited to be a mom. But there is a lot over my head right now. I know I can do it I just need to pray a lot for help. If you could pray for me that would help a lot. Thanks. Well my kid is Hna Harrison she is from Bosie Idaho. She is great! She is going to be a great missionary.

Love, Hna Hawkes

It's official I am a mom... woo hoo!
