I was going to do the subject line as "sweet child of mine" because, I have a child, but like, after the wonderful week and pday we have had, that song only seemed fitting.
This week was insane. ((if only I had a dime for everytime I read that in a missionaries weekly email)). But really though. I spent the first two days basically just waiting for my trainee to get here so I was just babysat by other companions for quite a while. Went on Elder splits for like half a day-which was interesting- and then followed the stl's and a dying missionary around Copenhagen just having fun. We went to Tivoli's (the super dope amusement park in københavn) and ate Christmas treats. #missionfatforevigt
And then I got my child. Søster Paras. Who is literally so legendary.
She is a total hick and knows all the right country songs. She already knows how to work hard and lovessss the gospel. Oh yeah, and she's an Aggie #represent. So I'm just teaching her how to have fun here and there and how to speak Danish (both of those things are much more difficult than they sound but we are thriving still). But yeah, we're homies.
Today, she and I went out to teach some homies in Skjern, a city on the west coast of Jylland. These people are so positive, so we have driven out there twice now. We DIED over the beautiful countryside, and since it was pday, we decided to check out the ocean out there as well. So fun. They fed us æbleskiver and gløgg.
Basically I love my life and I love Denmark and most of all I love the gospel of Jesus Christ. I feel like Will Ferrel in Elf in that scene where he hops around and yells "I'm in love! I'm in love! And I don't care who knows it!" except I'm like in love with how happy the Spirit makes me or something cheesy like that.
Yeah, we finally got the therapy light for our apartment about a week and a half ago if you can't tell. I've perked up a bit.
Have a great week! Elsker jer!!
Søster Felt
