Dear Mom, 
   How are you doing?  I liked reading your letter today and hearing about everything that you are doing.  I miss you a lot too and I miss working outside with you or walking around the yard.  I'm glad you're getting the cemetery to help you out a little bit.  Maybe you could find a gardening friend to help you a little.  I don't know if there is someone that doesn't have a yard or that likes to work outside.  but I'm glad that you are busy and that you like to be outside.  :)  When we helped Rafael plant I told them a little about our garden.  We planted tomatoes in plowed rows: it was fun to do that.  It was just a hand help plow - behind a horse.  I didn't do any plowing - just watched.  It's good for my sould to get outside and work with plants.  When I was planting Chiltoma whoops I mean peppers :) there were ome little plants and I thought about how I didn't have to defend them or their worth to you.  Ha ha!  It's faith - the little plants are still plants.  and they can grow too.  could you send me a picture of the miracle ash?  I would really like to see it.  I am really inspired by it.
   Thanks for always writing me and sending me packages.  it makes my day to read a letter from you.  I know it takes time to write letters and organize packages - and it's kind of a constant thing, but I really appreciate it.  alot of missionaries don't get that much support from their families.  I'm really grateful for the opportunity to grow up in a gospel-centered family - intact - with a mom and dad and four brothers.  I feel pretty spoiled to have been blessed as much as I have been.  Thanks for being good - see Helaman 5. :)  Well, se acabo el P-day.  Practique su Espanol, mama.  Tiene que hablar cada dia para que cuando venga, pueda hablar con todos mis amigos.  Con mucho amor and carino, Hermana Tew
