Constant Change

So I have come to realize that life as a missionary is a constant change...but I am not opposed to that! I actually welcome it! :) I got my new companion and am now in a trio. Her name is Sister Robinson and is a Idaho/Utah girl. She is a cute, nineteen year old and basically speaks the same language as me. You know like...abbreves...and a British accent... I'm working on it K! But I have been blessed with my companions so far! We have a good time and like to laugh while we work. :)
Mother dear....a few things. Thank you so much for the Easter package! :) It made me so happy! I have the best familia evs. Also, you have no idea how happy it made me that you kept up my tradition of banding the kitchen sink hose!!!! I'm sad Dad didn't get too wet but I'll just say that I had something to do with you getting sprayed a bzillion times. ;) He he. Finally, that was definitely a member sending you pictures of me and not my companions! I know you worry bout me, but I'm very obedient Mother. You really don't need to worry. :) So that member actually called you just in the other room and I was like "Ummmm....is this allowed?" Ha ha but that's Sister Fierro for you! She also told me to tell you that if you ever need to get me something to tell her and she'll get it... Wow. That was a mouth full.
Dad. I'm sorry I keep forgetting about the bike! We don't really ride them. We have a car and just walking on no drive days. We did ride our bikes to p day activity last week and right when I got on....I ran into a tree...and then a curb... Oh brother. I don't know how I've lived this long, but why did you want to know exactly?
So I actually got sick this past week. I had the 24 hour flu. I don't know what's up with my immune system lately! I never use to get sick! But yeah...it was nasty. We had to stay in for the day and then I had a babysitter at night...kind of humiliating. Ha ha. But it really wasn't bad at all and I'm all better! :) It was just a quickie sicky!
So how great was general conference?! Yeah yeah?! (Sidenote: Remember the picture of Auttie and me asleep on the couch? I always think of that pic at general conference. :)) Oh it is like music to my ears. The prophets and apostles are truly called of God. How bout President Monsen's talk on obedience? Wow. And I heard Helaman 5:12 a few times. So I hope we are all building our foundation on Christ! No matter how hard life gets, if we have that foundation, we never need be afraid. Never. I love this gospel so much...I know I say that every time but I can't imagine life without it. Life is hard enough as it is...Can you imagine how hard it would be without having this knowledge? That's why I'm here! To share the knowledge I have been blessed with with everyone so they can have that hope and that peace as well. How great is my calling!
Love Sister Barnes Jr.
P.S. Sister Barnes Sr. is coming home that soon? Family Reunion without me? PFFF! Have fun NOT having fun without me there! Ha ha joke. :) I love ya'll so much. Take pics and send them to me! :)
