It was so funny though i opened my email yesterday and i was so pumped to read what you guys wrote me, haha and i turned to elder simmons and i was like, dude nobody from my family wrote me. Megan and Austin were the only ones that wrote me besides some of my missionary buddies. Haha but i knew that you probably were going to write me today. So i get a short amount of time today to email you guys! Woo Hoo, i love email, it is like the best thing in the world. Imagine what it would be like if we couldn't email, and mail was as slow here as it was to drew in mexico! haha that would be terrible, it really is such a blessing to be serving in the united states, i love it!
So the little boy i baptized this last week is such a stud. His name is Mehki, pronounced like MaKye. He is so awesome, he says all he wants to do when he grows up is to work for the church. He is amazing, he is only 9 and he is like halfway through the book of mormon already. I love it. Working with part member families i think is my favorite part about missionary work because we get to help complete families so they can truly be together forever. Its the best. :) i can't wait for the day when you can come out here mom and i can introduce you to all the amazing people around here. Like last night we went over to the Liu's house for dinner, and they are just so cool and have taken such good care of us. We eat over there every sunday night, and now they are having us over every monday night too. Wing, is the chinese guy i have talked about befoer who loves wheel of time and the sword of truth, is just the best. We have become such good friends, and he is pretty inactive and we always have great talks about the gospel and church and i just really hope i can stay here in geneva again so i can keep working with people like him. Haha i also don't want to leave frank, or Ray and Jacinda, or just a bunch of others. Haha i could stay in geneva my whole mission and i wouldn't even care, but the thing is change is bound to happen sometime and i'll be ready for it when it comes. :) because we may not want the change, but good things will come from it. Its weird mom, sometimes i think about dad leaving our family and all the crazy bad things that happened around that time, but how different would life have been if he was around you know? I am not happy it happened or wanted it too, but look how good all of our lives are now. :) Drew and joel have amazing families, jess and sam are at home with you and they are doing great. I am out here in New York on my mission, who knows where i could have been right now. Its weird because i realized you don't really see the blessings in things until maybe years and years down the road.
I'm really happy for Sam. Tell her to keep being epic, and that Elder Larson loves her and wants to marry her hahahaha. Its soooooooo funny, but its true. She will be doing better without Aj, and hey i called it and you know it. So i am 3 for 3 now when it comes to guys being bums to jessica or samantha, when are they going to listen to me?! :P haha so awesome, i'm the best and you know it. Sorry my letter is kinda random but i am just in a crazy good mood right now. Yesterday we had a really fun pday, we went bowling and i scored in the 120s both games, and then we went and played a bunch of games up at franks mansion too. I loved it. Frank said something realy cool to me too the other day that made me feel like i really am making a difference or atleast am doing something alright out here. He told me that out of all the missionaries he has met with over all these years he has been investigating the church, that i am one of the very most special he has ever met or come across. haha and to hear that from frank made me way happy, you know how much i love that guy. The really cool things too about transfers coming up too is that, there is a big possiblilty that Elder Larson and i are going to be companions, how sweet would that be?!
Well I will let you know as soon as i can where i am going next transfer or if i am staying right here again in Geneva. i love you mom and thanks for doing all you do for me. Megans new haircut is really pretty isn't it? ;) haha she sent me some pictures and i kinda dig it! Love you mom talk to you later! Sorry for the shorter email!
Love
Elder Ingram
