6 Month Mark

I love love love getting your emails and can you believe I've been out 6 months? I can't...I don't feel like I have changed that much but I guess that's suppose to come near the end of the mission ;)

This week I have felt a little down altho I love my companion and the area is great just because, like you said, I don't feel like I'm making a huge difference. I thought I would be exhausted as a missionary because I would be talking so much and teaching so many lesson and tracting all day, but honestly I just feel exhausted because I feel like I'm not progressing and that's okay, that's still learning which is progressing ;)

Me and Sister Soga went and got milkshakes to celebrate (6 months)!!! 

Funny you ask about the Pineapple, I definitely ate way more pineapple at home than I have here ;) I hope you have a good birthday, just think next time it's your birthday I'll be a few weeks from coming home!

I am so grateful for my mission because I realize more and more what I love and miss and take for granted. I miss it snowing outside. I miss Hollys frank remarks and Jordans low key love for his sisters. I miss Natalies laugh and candles and Halloween decorations. And I miss taking funny pictures with the family :) I'm not homesick I just realize how many things I took for granted and I'm so happy when I come home it all won't be over!

I love you so much and can't wait to talk to you next week!

Alofa atu,

Sister Bowen
