How the Tables have Turned

The title of this email is very fitting because guess what... I'm going to be a trainer next transfer🫠 Reminder- I've only been out for 6 weeks so I'm still a trainee myself. Normally on a mission you're in training for 2 transfers, but we have so many new Sister missionaries coming next transfer that me and another trainee have to train as well. I just couldn't stop laughing when I found out haha. It's just comical that I've only been on the Mish for 6 weeks and now I'm going to be training someone else!! I'm kinda scared but it will be fun- I'm also just so excited!! 

One of the best parts about teaching our friends is that they actually are our friends! I mentioned how we started teaching this mom named Staci- well she's literally so funny and if I wasn't a missionary I would so just go hang out with her all day. We blew up balloons for her daughter Willow’s 5th birthday while teaching her about the Plan of Salvation. It was actually a pretty good lesson even though we were multitasking trying to make this Ballon banner thing. Anyways, I love her and her kids and I'm just so excited to continue teaching them!

We had mid-trainers this past week, which is basically when all the training companionships get together and hear trainings and chat. I got to see my MTC comp Sister Beach again which was so fun! Trainings are good but they low-key make you realize how much you need to work on- definitely a humbling experience. Also Mid-west storms are no joke. We had members messaging us to be safe while driving and we were like "pshh we're fine"- we were not, in fact, fine. We started driving home from mid-trainers and we literally could not see anything with the rain and wind. We had to pull over and wait out the storm in some other missionaries apartment. No one died which was a tender mercy- but I felt like I was in Wizard of Oz or something and was about to be swept up in a tornado. Luckily there were no tornadoes but I still want to see one:/

Anyways, I love and miss you all!!
