Half way point is coming folks... That is crazy... Beyond crazy. Fastest
time of my life. I live 6 weeks and it feels like a day. So i have been here in good old Bergamo for 2 transfers and i thought i might be leaving because Jones just got here... but nope.. I was wrong.. im always the one left in the city and she is leaving me!! So here comes my 8th new little companion.. and im bottle breaking her. What? First of all, i barely know how to be a missionary and now i am supposed to be senior comp.. how does that even work.. This transfer has definetly humbled me.. It has probably been one of the more difficult ones but it has allowed my heart to be softened, and it has allowed Heavenly Father to teach me.. I am thinking that more or less that once i lost the pride i obviously had, that Heavenly Father was like.. 'oh good, she is ready for responsibility now..' and then He probably is just laughing at whatever He has next planned... but at least He has the plan.. So once again HAPPPY MOTHERS DAY MOMSSSS... like mom, and grandma, and nana.. i hope it was special and that someone made you cakes.. i would have if i were there. Talking to my family was probably the greatest!!!... Actually i felt like a fish in a fishbowl and it didnt help that on the way there the weather went crazy and hail the size of eyeballs (weird comparison..i know..its all i could think of) came from the sky.. so i was already looking like a wet dog.. But it was so great to see everyone... Especially Candice and her huge stomache!! BABIES!! I am so stoked to be an aunt.. So we couldnt have a day without some kind of problem or mishap... We ended skype a little late so we actually missed our bus... We then had to run for 20 minutes through sketch town Bergamo to try and get to the station to catch our tram.. that whole run i was praying out loud for Heavenly Father to give us a miracle.. We get the the station and the tram is gone.. So we start running to try and find a bus.. nothing, niente.... great. So finally our neighbor Monicas name pops in my head and i think to call her. Her daughter just so happened to have her phone and they were in the car right then fairly close by.. So they came and grabbed us and we got home about 2 minutes before ten... MIRACLE!! prayer answered.. Thank you Heavenly Father! But seriously.. that would have been like a 2 hour walk home. SO that made that day even more memorabile.. Im not going to lie... when things happen that are not suppposed to, it adds to the adventure and fun of it all. Other than that things have been fairly normal.. had a conversation about Lord of the Rings with and English man.. he is part of the tolkien society.. Pretty legit guy.. and just teaching these people here. Pray for them, and pray for us that we might know how to help them. I love YOU!!! Love Sorella Woods
