What a description! (unfortunately, it seems to apply equally well to his short letter) Well, Josh just received his flight plans and the people in Tennessee are now preparing for our Spanish-speaking son! He'll be in Tennessee on March 24. So how does Josh feel about it? "anyways today is a HUGE day beacuse we got our flightplans. ... iam sooo stoked! kinda crazy thinking about leaving here and never comming back but i am sooo excited to get to tn. ... we all were excited for our flight plans so it made the entire week seem like christmas eve...aaaaahhh! haha" (yes, that is his spelling ... not my typing.)
Josh reports that spanish is coming faster now ... in class they are mostly just reviewing and teaching the lessons three times a day (he says: "[I don't know] how we find the time"). He says: "there are tons more goals we set and now we speak spanish and have an ingles fast
every day until lunch and tuesday and thursday are full day fasts. its way hard but i have learned tons and tons of spanish and iam so grateful for it. hevenly father has been very kind in helping me out with my spanish and other things."
The most information we get as to how things are going is: "the trc was fun this week and really powerful but i cant seem to remeber much more than that beacuse of the previously mentioned blur^ haha"
He states he is not gaining any weight, but is still trying.
We'll close with this thought from Josh:
"i have a quote for you guys from my teacher hmo taggert and it is "no pressure no
diamonds" so just know that all the hard trials(it took me a min to think of that
word cus i could only remeber it in spanish)...trials you go through in your life
just make you stronger and prettier. so no pressure no diamonds "
