Mom Email – Spreak Break

You know what’s funny. Sister Dormer just had her sister get married on Saturday. We thought it was funny that we both had siblings getting married this month. (: Oh well…
I want lots of pictures of the reception and when they come out of the temple! (:
I love Sage! I know she will be fantastic! Will you get her email for me? And that was sweet of them to ask about me. What did you tell them? Haha.
I laughed about your shots. (:
I am feeling better this week but still struggling. I was also going to tell you that this is hard. Very hard. Yesterday I admit I had the thoughts of ‘I can’t do this, why am I here?’ It was in one of my hardest lessons. And I get teary eyed even now thinking about it because I hate that I thought that and that I am telling myself that. I wondered why the Lord sent me to the ‘Bible Belt’ of all places. I don’t know my scriptures…
and I admit I’m still struggling but the thought that fights all those off is “The Lord trusts me to take on the challenge of the bible. He sent me here because HE KNOWS I can handle this.” Or in other words, I am your daughter.
Oh and ‘Heck yes’ is not redneck speak…sorry. I said it before in Utah. It is NOT redneck.
Thank you for the encouraging words.
Haha I can’t wait! I’ll have to check next week more then. (: I love the one with the Book of Mormon in front of my face. Me and my companion laughed. (: But I think we are going to head out now. I love you mom! (: I miss your brains!
Have a good spring break and I’ll talk to you in a week!
Love,
You daughter,
Sister Jesselyn Drummond
Mom Email – Happy March

Well I’m online now! I apologize that we were on so late last time. But don’t worry about it to much.
So when um exactly is the wedding? I don’t actually know and I would like to? It feels weird that my only sibling is getting married and I’m not there…it almost makes me feel bad. But that is okay. I’m here at this time for a reason right? I just wish I could be helpin out in some way.
My week has been so good! Well at least, yesterday haha. It has been a struggle but not at the same time. It’s confusing and a little weird. But I could explain it but then you and your motherly ways would start worrying, but I am here to say that I am fine and that I have an Alabama mom who can read me like you do. It’s quite scary actually haha… But I love her! (:
So yea, let’s talk! 😉
Oh and I forgot to say, but I said it in my weekly email, I met a Japanese woman this past week. It was really weird. She was so adorable and made me want to go back to Japan! It was really cool haha. She was Buddhist though. (:
I knew you would laugh at my ‘motherly ways’ (: Made me laugh as well.
Wow. That is insane! But the Holy Ghost was with Dad. That is good. That is an amazing story. Thank you for that.
Just another reason that I am thankful for the gift of the Holy Ghost. He is there to prompt us in bad situations and to protect us even. He is our guide through this life.
Well I will keep it short because we are getting ready to leave, but I found out Saturday morning when I was in my personal study that I had become depressed and wasn’t working diligently. I hated it. I just cried in companionship study… But it’s okay. Because as I have stated in my weekly letter, I have made the goal to improve. And Sister Dormer is on board and willing! I love her. She is amazing. haha. She is like my long lost sister! (:
But anyways I will copy my email to President. It will explain it better. But we are going now. I’m hungry and we need to still go shopping haha.
I love you so much! And I miss your brains. (:
Love,
Your daughter, Sister Drummond
