  2. Sister Nielson,
    I'm enjoying your blog. We are experiencing many of the same things although with different cultures. We send our second batch of missionaries home tomorrow and get our newbies on Thursday. That's such an emotional experience. We are loving the Philippines. I thought you might want to watch our blog. It's: carlosmission.blogspot.com Take Care, Sister Carlos

  4. The elder from Spokane is from our old stake! I didn't know him, but Ashley knows him a little bit. She was good friends with his best friend. Small world! So glad you finally got your crate!!

    I love reading your blog! You are in our prayers!
