No Pegamos; Bailamos

 Hermana Ostler’s Update – April 28, 2014
  
This is the thing that I tell all the children. We do not hit, WE DANCE. And then they all start to dance and are happy again. I am so using it with my future children. 

My companion was sick all week. It’s the typical case of having a cold, going to the doctor (DOCTORS ARE NOT FOR COLDS), taking a ton of antibiotics, and then getting sick from all the medicine. So I did a lot of sitting around doing nothing, being a terrible nurse (how can you tell if it’s a fever if everything is hot here?), getting bored, starting to dance, stopping because that is weird.... And my companion slept for about 3 DAYS STRAIGHT WITHOUT WAKING UP. But it was good. 

There was one point when I sat on top of my desk, opened the window, and started to read the Book of Mormon. I was reading Alma 13 and it was like the windows of heaven just opened up and I just “got it.” I understood. I felt the tender communication of a loving Father in Heaven. I just felt so loved and so honored to be a part of his big ol’ plan. Read that chapter. I know that God continues communicating with His children. He has not stopped loving us. When we have questions, He gives us answers. What a joy that is! 

The dumbest Alex Question of the week:

Have you had appendicitis before?? Hahaha. 

I love you all. I really do!
