Hola Family!
Thanks for all the well wishes, I think we should have good day today. We´re planning on bowling and pizza. Pretty American :) Things are going really well though. Thanks for the gifts! They look great. Sorry Logan, I´m taking the shoes :) The orange shirt too. But is it really orange? In the picture it looks salmon. But maybe I´m just color blind. So I haven´t gotten the card yet, mail takes a while to get here. But it should come soon. Unless of course you sent it to the office, then it will get here in like a couple of days. It´s weird to think that I´m twenty one. That´s like important. I can do a bunch of stuff that I actually can´t do because I´m a mormon :) And I´m legal. Like completely. Am I off your insurance now? Just a question. And the bank account? Any changes? Just curiousity. I haven´t been thinking much about my school stuff. Really I only think about it on pdays, when I have time. But today I´ve just been trying to figure out what to do. Because you have to have fun on your birthday, it´s like a social requirement :) Funny how that goes though. It´s your birthday, you have to do something fun! Thank you both for the advice though, I´m going to think and pray about it and make a decision when the time comes. Basically I´m going to be on the same basic path for either once I get back. Just got to figure it out once Í´m done with generals. Well really before, but I have time. But then again, I don´t trust time any more. It leaves quickly and is quite unforgiving. Ammon the rockstar!!! Good work getting the friend of Kevin Bacon who has a hott girl :) I´m excited to see it :) Which weirds me out, but make me happy at the same time. Sounds like things are all going really well. Also sounds like October is going to be an exciting month for the fam. All three of us cousins get back in October. I´m the last one :) Oh and by the way, we thought I was going to get back on the 30th, but I failed to take into account the change in time. So I might actually get back on the 29th. I´m not sure. I´m pretty sure I leave at like 7 in the morning on the 29th and get back at like 6 or 7 o clock Spain time. So that would actually be in the afternoon of the 29th. So sorry Micah! Or maybe you will be happier because you won´t have to share your birthday :)
So this week I just wanted to share with you a brief testimony. Over the last two years I have come to know better my Father in Heaven and my brother Jesus Christ. I am amazed by their patience and mercy, but at the same time by their exactness and justice. I love them both. And I miss them. As I watched How to Find Faith in Christ (a church production used by missionaries at times) with a less active member this last week, I felt the spirit strongly, and felt the desire to see my brother again. I wanted to thank Him, to hug Him, to hear His voice and follow Him. But I realized that even though we are not with him, we can still follow Him. I am not perfect, I wish I was for Him, but I am trying and getting better each day. That´s what he asks, keep it up. As I grow one year older and hopefully wiser too, I want to share my love and gratitude to all of you. You are the best family that I could ask for. The family I needed to become who I am today, and the family I need to become who I need to be tomorrow. Thank you for everything.
Con amor,
Elder Charlie Flint
