We got to skype with Christian yesterday and she seems to be doing fabulous!  Her letter was understandably short this morning.

Good luck with school for the youngins! I sure hope they do well, I pray for them all! You know what you said about taking a village to raise a child, is so true. Holy Cow. I am so grateful for all of those people who helped raise me, even if they didn't realize it. I wouldn't be here without them! I think of even Teresa, who kept me playing hymns even though i didn't have much interest at the time, or Connie my swim coach who made me realize that it was alright to not be the fastest swimmer, I have so much more worth than just as a swimmer. Isn't it funny how much of a difference those little things can make? The little things people say to you, or have you do? I'm a lucky girl :)

 Megan, the one who we skyped at last night has a book that has 4 main things that we should do in our lives...they made me think.

1. Don't make assumptions

2. Do your best- and your best will be different every day ;)

3. Don't take things personally

4. Always be true- be honest and trustworthy

I love those 4 things, and am trying to do better at all of them!

I hope and pray you have a great week!

Love,

Sister Christina Trickler
