One Year Older and Wiser too

So this week was good. I had my birthday! It was good. It was pretty much like a normal missionary day. We taught some lessons and then we had 3 hours of planning!! We do weekly planing on Thursdays. Then we had dinner at a recent convert's house we had cake it was really good! We have been doing A LOT of finding this past week! that made it a little rough. I love to teach! but its hard to find those people to teach, you know what I mean. I know that their are people out there the the Lord has prepared and are ready for the Gospel, we just have to find em'! we are excited because we have a few good potentials that we are going to meet with this week and we hope that goes well. We are also doing exchange this week! I am staying here this time and a brand new missionary is going to come here! this is her first transfer! I hope she likes tracting because chances are that is what we will be doing, not many people like to meet with us on Saturdays for some weird reason. Anyway I know that it will be good. I hope that you all have a wonderful week! thanks so much for all your birthday wishes! --Sister Cox

Hello everyone! How are you guys doing?! I hear that the weather is warming up there. Well, we were not so lucky :( it rained for like 3 days!! then it all froze and turned to ice and then is snowed and snowed some more. yeah, but i guess the only good part was that we were inside. my companions has been sick all week! yes we have been in the apt. most of the week! I had cabin fever really bad!! and to make matters worse Church was cancelled on Sunday because of the ice and snow! I was so looking forward to church. but my companion is feeling better and we are hoping to hit the ground running this week and find and teach! sorry this is so short but I have to go. i hope you all have a great week!-- Sister Cox
