Hola Hola mama! Estoy bien y no Jhoel no se bautizó y hablamos de eso con el mucho pero yo estaba un poco desanimado cuando él fumo. Sé que necesito ser mas paciente con las personas que estamos enseñando y me cuesta hacerlo mucho pero con tiempo y si amo esta personas voy poder hacerlo. Me neuvo comp es genial, super humilde y chistoso. Super Nerdy que es genial tambien. Me siento bajo de estatura cuando estamos caminando en la calle que es raro para me. El es super dedicado. Les amo y se sienta mejor de salud!

Hi mom! I am well and no jhoel didn’t get baptized. We talked to him a lot and I was really disappointed when he smoked. I know I need to be more patient with the people I am teaching but sometimes it is hard. I know that if I love these people and give it time I will learn more patience. My new companion is great, super humble and super funny. He’s also super nerdy which is awesome too! I feel super short when we are walking down the street which is really strange for me. He is super dedicated! I love you guys and hope you feel better soon.
Well I only "get it" because of all the preparation that I had all my life thanks to you and mom. I seriously am so grateful for your constant counsel and help with all the issues and problems I had growing up. I know it is because of your example and the things that you taught me about the priesthood and my duties as a priesthood holder that I understand the things about the work of the lord. Your a great father and I know your going to be rewarded well in heaven for magnifying your calling as a father.
