LOVE MY FAMILY! Gosh it was so nice to see them all! It was funny because the members whose house I was Skyping at were like: "Wow it sounded like you were having a party in there!" I know. I laugh really loud. I was just too happy to care!!!! So good! Christmas is the BEST! But it'll be my last in Kansas. WEIRD!
So I know you're all wondering, "Sister Herrin, why haven't you talked about Belinda getting baptized yesterday?" Well my friends, it's because it didn't happen. I know. This always happens to me! BUT She is STILL GETTING BAPTIZED! Yes! And in December to help with our mission goal! Which reminds me I still need to tell President Bell. Whoops. He's cool :) So we scheduled Belinda's baptism for Sunday at 4:30 because it would be right after meetings and before dinner. Reasonable right? Well we called Belinda to confirm and it turns out that she thought she was getting baptized in the Morning before church at 8am! What? She was driving Mariah to Oklahoma City right sacrament! So we couldn't get approval from the bishop to do it that early and It was Mariah's Christmas present to go to Oklahoma so we moved the date. No big :) She's off work Wednesday the 31st so we're doing it at 2pm! We've talked to everyone, it's more organized and life is great!!! :) So it's still on!!!
Other cool story, we saw Belinda after we pushed the date back and gave her a late Christmas present, early baptism present :) We got her a quad scripture set! And I gave her one of the Plan of Salvation Puzzles that Judy sent me! She just cried she loved them so much!!! She was SO excited to read it all and to learn all about the scriptures! SO EXCITED! She wants us to write our testimonies in the front of her scriptures at her baptism :) She's just like, I can't wait to be a Mormon! I'm telling you this woman is a walking miracle!!!! I love her so much!!! We're going to take lots pictures :)
Well I'm out of time AGAIN!
BUT I love you all and so enjoyed Christmas! Thank you thank you thank you!!!
Promise more for next week!!!
-Sister Herrin
