I bet you guys thought I forgot all about you... probably not. But I am late in posting due to the internet not working last night (thanks a lot). Right now it seems to currently be working and so I'm going to try and make this a quick post.
Steven still is doing well at work. Things weren't as busy this week so he was able to work on some programming.
Work went well for me. I had another chance to be with the babies for extra time this week and did so much better! They switched me out once the 4th came, but I got no where near overwhelmed like I was last time.
I also got awarded by one of the teachers I work with as '#1 Teacher' because for once she felt someone actually cared about how her room runs and works. I also earned bonus bucks for working hard. I'm so grateful for the feed back because some of the time (if not most) I feel I'm not doing a good job since the kids don't all listen to me.
Then I lost my phone :) Who ever has it chose not to answer it, ever. So it's been a little weird being phoneless but I think tomorrow I'll be getting an exact copy of my old one (with the same number).
Unfortunately game night was cancelled due to things unexpectedly happening with the friends. I hope things are getting better for them and hope we'll be able to resume this week.
Steven enjoyed having some of his guy friend over to continue their roll playing game Saturday. That same day we got to go to a baptism. It was for one of the sisters I visit teach. It was a packed room! I got to lead the music which has a somewhat funny story. I mentioned in a previous post about how Steven and I had the missionaries over for dinner. So Thursday as I was home between my shifts at work I get a knock on the door. I answer and there were the missionaries. They looked at me bewildered and then they smile that kind of smile you make when you feel silly or awkward. They apologized for knocking and forgetting that Steven and I lived there. They were out knocking on doors and some how forgot that a week prior they were just there. They then asked if so-in-so got a hold of me to lead the music for the baptism. I said no, but since I already planned on being there and conducting it easy, I said I'd do it.
After the baptism I got me and Steven some DQ for dinner and dessert. We then spent the rest of the night eating and watching 'I Don't Know How She Does It' which was good enough. I really liked the message of Families Are Important.
It was Fast Sunday since it was the first Sunday of the month yesterday. Steven and I began our fast the night before and slept in to help preoccupy our minds from our empty stomachs. At church I was determined to bare my testimony and I did. It was probably my real first time of going up on my own (with the prompting of HF built up for the past 3 months). It was awesome. I shared with everyone my testimony of prayer. I got my job because of my diligence in fasting and praying for one and I recovered extraordinarily quickly from my bronchitis because of the blessing my father gave me. Sometimes HF doesn't answer quickly, but I know he's there and listens to me and loves me dearly, sometimes I wish he didn't test me on my patience.
Anyways, hope you all are going well. I miss you guys and hope to see or hear from you soon :)
