Bugs are gross. Bugs in the south are even more gross. There are
so many bugs I didn't know existed. That's not ok with me. Well now I
have to share my weekly bug story. So yesterday I was getting into the
shower and what do I see in the bathtub? A NASTY green centipede
thingy. They can run super fast too! Also it pooped in our tub! So
naturally we poured bleach on it and let it die and then sucked it up
with our vacuum and then just in case it wasn't dead we taped the hose
on the vacuum so it couldn't crawl out and kill us in the night. So
that was gross.
    Another fun fact about yesterday there was a CRAZY storm. The rain
was so crazy that it looked white and it was knocking trees over and
there was crazy thunder and lightning too! Our power was knocked out
too so we lit candles and such. It rains pretty much everyday here.
That's a thing. Not a good thing but a thing.
    On Friday we got our iPads!!!!!!! YAY! They are such amazing tools
and so fun. Also I can look at my email everyday! So I guess if you
want you can email me every single day ☺️. I can't respond until
Monday but hey that shouldn't stop you:)
    In our zone meeting on Friday President Griffin talked about the
story of Peter walking on the water to the Savior (Matthew 14:24-32).
He read the story and stopped every few verses and discussed it. At
the end he told us that most people focus on sinking Peter and that we
all think that he should have had more faith. President told us that
instead of focusing on sinking Peter we should focus on rising Peter.
Even though Peters faith wavered, he did exactly what he should do,
call out to our savior and say "save me." Another part I loved was
when the Savior walked with Peter back to the boat. The storm was
still going on but the Savior was right there next to him all the way.
The Lord is on our side. Call out to him in your "storms" and he will
walk with you until you get back to the boat. I know that to be true
and I am glad to have this gospel in my life.
    Thank you for all the support and love! I love you all! Have a great week!
