You, too! By the way, there are many, many opportunities for teaching English here, too. ;)

Press forward with steadfast faith in Christ.

Best wishes,

You can of course do both. I'm just thinking of using your Chinese while it is still fresh and perhaps even working with both Chinese and Korean!

Maybe even think about working a while... Perhaps there's a reason I wasn't able to get u into school.... ;)

Thank you. Love you!

Shoes!

Thank you for watching over everything. :) You're terrific. I did get shoes... finally. ;)

I don't feel like you're trying to get rid of me. :) I really think going to China would be a great idea. I really hope to. It is a wonderful idea! We'll discuss it as the time gets closer. :)

Press forward with steadfast faith in Christ.

Best wishes,

Glad to see that you spent some money! Shoes, I hope.

When you receive a package, be sure to thank the Clements. They gave me $50 for you, so I bought the mini scriptures and a Korean hymnal (the calendar is from Rachel) and paid $30+ to ship them. 

Another thought: please don't think that I'm trying to ship you out of here (re: Mangelsons, teaching English, etc.). I'm just feeling old and like I didn't take advantage of my young single years. I want you to have everything you want...and not regret using your time doing anything other than what you want to do.

We'll support you no matter what...

All of our love!

Mom

Thinking of you again!

Good humor is a tonic for mind and body. It is the best antidote for anxiety and depression. It is a business asset. It attracts and keeps friends. It lightens human burdens. It is the direct route to serenity and contentment.

I just had a realization that I don't really want your pictures, but I want your companion's pictures of you and/or you in a group! if you could have others carbon copy me, when they send pictures home, that would be fabulous!

Always thinking about you!

I liked it a lot. It really raised the bar for picture humor. It is incredible to see what happens when people bend their wills to something higher and don't chalk up their experiences to the gutter they come from. :)

Press forward with steadfast faith in Christ.

Best wishes,

Elder Jones

Dad thought you'd get a kick out of this!
