I am really glad that I was able to talk to you guys this morning even though it was for a really hard reason [her cousin passed away]. It was nice to hear your voices. 

I am feeling lots of jumbled up feelings. I am really sad about Max but I know that God loves him and will take care of him. It's really hard to be far away from family for this but I am grateful to be in the mission and I am going to keep pushing forward. 

Thank you for sending happy pictures. M.'s email also helped me a lot. She is a really sweet girl. 

Send my love to the family. 

Love always,
