Hello, family!!
Mom- Thank you for the package. The lotion is saving my life. I'm glad you liked my outfit in the picture. I got it at Goodwill. 4 dollars. That, is a good deal. I hope you and Dad have an awesome first week of being "Grandma" and "Grandpa". The fact that you can go by those titles makes ME feel old. ;) Jk, you two are still young and limber. I love you, Mom. Thanks for being the best. Emily- Is it another snow day today? You're so lucky. I think I got like 1 snow day my whole high school existence. You're hair is getting so long! I know I say this every email but YOU FOR REALS ARE SUCH A CUTIE. Also, I'm happy you didn't get eaten by the wolf dog. I love you, Em. Dad- I hope you know that I can't eat at Taco Bell without having my heart ache a little bit because I miss you. I can't wait to bond as father and daughter again and eat 1000 calories at "Tac-er Bell". I hope you have a good week and that the people you surround yourself with don't make stupid decisions. I love you, Dad.
1.) "You're the first companion I've had to clean up my pee!" -Me Sister Anderson said something funny. I laughed. Laughed some more. Then I peed. I peed a lot. I peed so much it got on the carpet. Do you know how many layers I had on? A lot. It was a full load of pee, my friends. I'm 20 years old. 😳 Sister Anderson cleaned up my pee because she felt bad that she caused me to pee my pants. She's a good person. I love her.
Also, side note: I did not simply watch Sister Anderson clean up my pee. I walked out of our room after changing, and she had already cleaned it up. I wouldn't just let someone clean up my pee. I'm a normal person.
2.) "Did you just say diery farts?" -Sister Anderson This quote happened literally 20 minutes after I peed all over our apartment. We were reading with a less active family in our ward, and instead of saying "fiery darts", my brain switched the first letters of the two words. I SAID THE WORD "FARTS" IN A LESSON. I wanted to die. Sister Anderson basically did die, and she was laughing for the remainder of the lesson. If I were to participate in an awkward competition, I would get kicked out for being too awkward. That's how awkward I am.
3.) "This d@*$ fluff is a bunch of crap!" -Donna We volunteer ever week at this place called the "Giving Doll". We help make dolls to go to hospitals and to children in need. Every week I sit by my pal Donna. She's 90 years old and has Alzheimer's. So basically she tells me the same things every week. Anyways, this week they changed the fluff that we stuff the dolls with, and Donna was not pleased. In fact she said quite a few words that were not mission approved to show how NOT pleased she was. If we're being honest, the fluff was a bunch of crap. I know what you're all thinking, "how can fluff be crap?" It can be crap. I promise. Just ask Donna.
4.) "If I ever found the gold plates, I would make a gold tooth out of them. Then every time I smiled I would point at my single gold tooth and be like 'word....of God'" -Polly I really don't think this quote needs much of an explanation. It's perfect the way it is. I will, however, say that Polly is extremely hard to teach. It's hard to teach with the Spirit when you're laughing so hard you basically poop. I love her too much.
5.) "If you want to learn to love people, you've got to love God." -Elder Robert C. Gay (member of the 70. he came to our mission. nbd.) When I first came out on my mission, I did not love the people of Ohio. I was terrified of them. There are so many crazies here. Now, my eyes get a little teary thinking about ever leaving them. I truly believe that as my love for God has increased, my love for the people has as well. I love God, I love the people I get to serve, and I love being a missionary.
Have the best week ever. I love all of you.
Love,
Sister Reddish
