Hey mom, I am
trying to download Skype on this computer, but it has not been working so far.
I heard that there is a way to do web cam from Facebook. Is that
true? If it is, maybe that would be better. Do you know my username
and password to Facebook? Thanks. I will try to call tonight, but I
do not know if it will work because we have a mother s day activity tonight
here in a little, and so I do not know if I will have time today. If
anything, feel free to give me a call at 065 9277 0237 tonight with the Brazil
codes. I am aloud to make a phone call really quick today to make sure
that everything is alright for tomorrow. I love you!
I ended up
calling Shane. It was so funny to hear
him say hello in Portuguese. I didn’t
even know it was him. I asked for Elder
Lee and he said MOM! It’s really
you! We got our details set up in a
matter of minutes and said goodbye until Sunday.
Talking to
Shane was amazing. He is so cute and
manly and engaged in the work and awesome.
He says the kids are all growing up without him and he is so sad his
mission is coming to an end – he has almost 10 months left. Crazy how he views time differently than
us. His Portuguese is so fast. He sounds like he is speaking with a Chinese
accent. It is so cool to hear him. He is doing wonderfully and doesn’t miss us
in the sense that he wants to be a good missionary and he wants to accomplish
everything in the next 10 months. He is
awesome!

As promised, I am writing to you all, although I really do
not have much to say. It seems like I talked and saw all of you just
yesterday, haahahahaha. So, now what... life is good still... I am here
still... I am still thinking of what to say... alright, I thought of it...
maybe...
It was awesome getting to see all of you. You are all
getting so big. I feel that I am 18 and the same person, but all of you
are getting older, cuter, and more talented every day. So, I was really
glad to be able to answer some of your questions about Brazil and about being a
missionary. It made me realize how much I love being her as a servant of
the lord. A lot of missionaries get homesick when they called, but you
all made me want to enjoy it here while I have it, although I must admit that I
would like you all here with me, hahaha. I sure love all of you and you
are all the greatest blessing that I have. We will have to do some fun
stuff when I get home. Maybe a penguin night, lol. (I do not think
that I spelled that right though). So, this week we are excited to get to
work. This week we have some possibilities for baptisms that we would
like to happen. This Sunday was hard because everybody was traveling, but
they should all be back by wed, because the holiday season ends on wed and
everybody has to return for work. So, it should be a good week. My
companion is doing well. He is awesome. My district is doing well
too. There have been some complications, but this week I am excited to
see them get some good results for their work. I love being a missionary.
Boys, you will all love it. The secret to missionary work is work.
Work, love, and being bold. That is what I have found. If you
work, you will love, and if you love, it takes out all fear and you become
bold. That is when the mission becomes the most delicious thing to you.
It is good. Well, I love all of you, and it was great talking to
you all yesterday. It will just be a little bit until I talk to all of
you again at Christmas. Time goes by so fast. Let's make the best of it.
I love you all!!!!!!
Love, Elder Lee
