dear mi familia,
Mom and dad are still having problems with their internet and haven't been able to log on yet. So, mom asked me to write and give everyone the short update until she can get to a computer that works.
The first few days were rough--just all the adjusting and "baptism by fire" so to speak. Mom was a bit teary when she first called home. They had about an hour with Pres. and Sis. Thornock and then they were gone and mom and dad were on their own. Mom was especially grateful for all of Alicia's help. This was her report on their first zone meeting:
"We had our first zone meeting today [Friday], and i guess it went okay. I pretty much bombed my part (yes, she said 'bombed') but dad did really well--told a bunch of his stories and kept them all interested. But you know what was their favorite part of the whole meeting? Alicia's cookies! Alicia made cookies for them and they all just about died over them. So at least that part was a success."
Not quite a raving response, but I talked to her yesterday for just a few minutes and she sounded better. So, keep them and Isaac in your prayers and soon I'm sure they will be feeling a little more comfortable and at ease!
love you,
Mary
