New experiences to have

Dear Mom,
Its great to hear how things are. I can't stop laughing about how the kids are doing. HAHAHA I never thought Emma and Ryan would ever do that. I am very very happy for you and your calling. I know you will do great!!! I know the kids will come around. I have learned that our trials and hardships were chosen by ourselves. I know Emma and Ryan picked their choices cuz they know inside themselves that they can get over it. They just have to be smart and put all their trust in their Lord. I know that has helped me a lot on my mission.
My companion is good. I am very like around the zone and the Zone Leaders really like me and they found out more about him. His name is Elder Springer. He was an apostate missionary at first. But I don't hold that against him, and good I didn't. Cuz later I came to find out that his parents don't support him on being out here, and went through a hard time through his life and his mission. He asked me if I can help him get through this transfer. If he doesn't do well, he gets sent home. All he asked for me is to work hard and help him get stuff off his mind. He is suffering from depressing-like really bad. He did counseling and is taking meds. Why I tell all you this is because I have come to learn that you never know what is behind the scenes of people and their lives. So love them as Jesus loves you. Don't hold peoples physical characteristics, past or anything against them. God made them that way because they are strong enough to get through it themselves. So if you ever get into a place like that, first know your Heavenly Father loves you and that you have to keep taking the punches and keep pushing forward. Elder Springer and I are in the Rinn Valley Ward still and the Ward got split up. It was Stake Conference yesterday and they shared the news. So Elder Clay and Elder Blaylock are in the other Ward. I was put on bike this transfer but now they split up the Ward and the Ward boundaries are HUGE!!!! So we get a car at the end of the month. or late next week.
But know I am doing well. Oh and another thing I learned was, "don't give up, cuz every time you get the feeling like giving up, that means there is something big is going to happen." I felt like giving up this past week, but I promised myself that wouldn't give up and to finish. I am great now! :) Oh and thanks again for doing that. And yes we did.

Much Love,
Elder Green the Younger.

P.S: tell the kids to straighten up, or I'll come home early and knock some sense into them! ;) jk. but tell them I love them! I'm glad I am an example to them. Means a lot to me.
