Hey family,
I haven´t read any emails yet, and I haven´t written president either, but I wanted to ask a few questions.
my companion hardly ever gets mail from her family.  Maybe you could write her a short note?  She speaks perfect English, so anyone can write her.  She´s really nice. her email is blanca.silva at myldsmail.net

Dale Helfer? and Andrew?
Sarah`s address?
G and G tew`s new address?
And I am also requesting the missionary moments. 

It was great to talk to you yesterday.  Thanks for being a great family!
Love, Mb

 Hey hey hey
  Cheryl, Thanks for the pictures!  I loved them.  The kids really look different.  They´re so big!  Nani looks different. I don't think I got all of your letter.  So, maybe you can send on the rest of it this week!  I hope you are Kevin and doing well.   Thanks for writing me.  I always like to hear from you.
  Kevin, I really liked hearing that you are reading to your kids.  I just feel good every time I think of you reading to them because I remember Dad reading to me.  and mom too.
   Mom, Happy mothers day again.  I kind of talked a lot yesterday without saying thanks.  ingrata.  Thanks for being a great mom.  Yesterday we visited a mom who hit her son with a twig while we were there.  Thanks for always being a good example of love and patience and forgiveness. 
  Dad, thanks for your letter and thanks for your advice yesterday.  I will try to think a little more positively.  Sounds like you´re developing lots of talents.  Good luck with your trombone.
  
Good luck in the garden, mom.  Tell the tulips hi for me!  I was also glad to hear about the miracle ash.  There are always miracles!!!
Well, Enrique went to church this Sunday with almost all of his family.  Only one son stayed in the house to make sure it was safe.  His family was really happy that he went!  They have 4 sons and then a daughter, like us.  And the daughter stays up late until everyone gets home to say prayers, even though she´s tired.  The dad, Enrique, told us that she asked him over and over Sunday morning if he was going to go to church with them. Si, hombre!  he said. haha.
   Well, we are hoping that Enrique will get baptized this month.  he has 6 days without smoking or drinking.  And he really wants to change.  He wants to get baptized. 
Well, we have to get going now.  I´m sorry this is short but I don´t have time to write more.  I love you all!
Thanks for writing me.
Love hna tew
