love elder weaver

My querido mother!!! this week was a btter week! me and my comp are getting things moving a little faster!!! and this week we were able to contact alot of people, but not alot allowed us to come in and to teach.. so thats been kind of hard.. but even with the heat and the Drunks.... man yesterday two drunk guys tried to make me and my comp get in their car after we got done eating.. and we said now thanks and i started to walk away and he grabbed my arm very tightly and said fine. you drive. and i pulled my arm away. very quickly and said i dont know how to drive... and he looked at me very seriously and said.. here come i will teach you.. haha we left.... hahaha we said that we would wait at the bottom of the hill and him and his drunk buddy never came in there car. by the time we got to the bottom, so we jsut left. and then sunday night.. we walked in the alley way behind our house, the area that i dont like.. and ive told my comp that i dont like it.. but we went anyways... passed a group of teeanagers and they had a gun. we walked by like we didnt see anything, and as we were walking away, one yelled hey! and we looked back and he held up the gun to show it off.. didnt point it at us.. just showed it off. and ya we kept walking. ANNND all is well. Diana was able to get baptized by the Bishop, on friday! and then sunday she gave me the great opportunity to confirm her! amd it was great she kept thanking me for confirming her a member of the Church of Jesus Christ! haha shes cute, her whole family went to the baptizm and her confirmation. The family didnt come to church Sunday... that made me super sad... but we still have lessons with them on tuesdays ad thursdays! My list so far for the package, is a rag...  i dont know if you remember the rag that Coach Jones has.. or had.. that you get it wet and then stretch it or snap it and its cold... thats my list so far.  ;) and we were able to kill the baby rat. :) 

Wow, prayers are answered, so glad you are safe and alive :) so excited for Diana and hope that her testimony continues to grow, I will look for the rag :) the family will be in our prayers, what is there name and I'll put it in the temple :) feeling good? Comp ok to avoid the alley from now on? Fhe tonight? How is the kid you baptized and has leg problems? Sorry I can't think of his name right now.... 
the family name is Vasquez Mesa, and if you could put Guilberto, asuncion and jesus and Gema in the temple as well. i feel good today we played soccer as a Zone and talked alot witha  kid from weber high.. and Pedro is ok... hes coming to church and all but theyre not going to do the operation anymore.. and said that he hurt it again by himself, so they arent reliebale.. 
Sure I will, tell me about them :) I'll have to go and write the names,bogey might think I'm crazy if I call and ask them to put Jesus name on the prayer roll :) Haha, I know it's not how you pronounce it :) I'll add Pedro to the list as well...
Where were you coming from eating when the drunks approached you? Do you feel safe more than not? Yes I'm concerned but have faith you will be protected, continue to follow the prompting some of the Holy Ghost :) what's plans for conference? Did you heR about elder Scott passing away? Have you heard how mission pres is?
we were leaving a members house from eating but ya we were far away from the house.. i feel safe. but not sure.. if that makes sense.. i do to i have the faith, but Gods going to do his part but we do too and folow the spirit.. ha for conference im going to go with Villegas in his area i think and we are going to watch them in english and al of them i think! i just barely hear that Elder Scott passed



 
She is beautiful, all in white, what an angel!!! You look great! Eating well? Feeling good?

im so skinny....
You look good skinny ;) I bet you are darker than jordan :) 

oh and another thing... for some reason ive never thought about marraige so much... my comp talks about his love of his life and how when he gets home hes gonna ask her to marry him... and he asks me all these questions about girls ive dated and so so... and i wont lie... ive gotten a little distracted, and ive told him that ive got a yr to serve the lord,a nd he said but you gotta start planning now.. but ive got faith  that what happens happpens. 

This is my scripture for the week, it's from the October visiting teaching lesson :) "In the Book of Mormon, we learn the great truth that we “pray unto the Father with all the energy of heart, that [we] may be filled with this love, which he hath bestowed upon all who are true followers of his Son, Jesus Christ; that [we] may become the sons [and daughters] of God; that when he shall appear we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is; that we may have this hope; that we may be purified even as he is pure” (Moroni 7:48).
What's your scripture? Best part of last week?

my scrip is Alma 7; 15 talks about leaving behind sin... and to me its a huge blessing to give up sin and move on and to see poeple change through Jesus Christ is a huge blessing to me to see the miracle. 
The best part of this week i feel like was a contact.. we contacted aguy ad we were standing outside his fence and he gave us 5 min to talk with him.. and we got all the way up to the first vision and we said it by memory and it was great the spirit that we felt.. that we could create a envirement so the spirit could be there, i can tesify that the first vision is powerful! :)

Jacer went thru a time like that too, just remember there is a plan and there is no sense being concerned with all that right now :) I'm sure it's tough when all he talks about is that, hang in there and remember how fast time is going and try to stay focused on the task at hand, him too ;) it's ok, so long as you refocus :) haha!!! Silly girls....
ya and i told him that he still has 20 months before he goes home and he needs to focus.. but he talks back and we fight.. so i dont say that much about it.. Idk...
Awesome, I love when you share things like that with us, I feel like it paints a very visual picture of what you are doing and I'm sure Jax will love to hear the detail of mission contacts, so great thanks!!! Do you get to return to him and teach him more? Lots of big plans this week besides conf?

the guy that we contacted doesnt live there he lives in another city, but we gave him our number and everything... but never called and hasnt called. no big plans. we might go to see anohter part of our area.. were they eat turtle eggs and iguana its called Morro. and we might go to visist the members. there is a houe of prayer in the area.. so the church isnt to big.. but we{ll go and visit the members! 

Sounds like a very fun, new adventure-hope you get to try new food ;) is it a long taxi ride or walk? Would live to see pic ;) Are you happy?
how is pres Madsen?
not sure hasnt said anything.. but i think hes doing great, healing fast! hey i have a Q can a divorsed woman get sealed to her kids!!???
I don't think so, because gram pat has looked into being sealed to her boys and 
can't :(.  Have to have faith that in the life after this things like that get all straightened  out ;)
ohhh k:) we answered correclty then to a member that is in the situation.. ha :) 

i think its about a half hour in  a bus.. ill tke a pic! ;) ha im happy! hot.. and skinny.. :) are you happy!? 

I am, I am very happy, so blessed!!!! Wish I was skinny and happy too :) I'm working on it, I've lost since February :) yea!!!! So blessed to be your mom!!!

im so blessed to be your son! ha ive lve lost about 15 pounds... since ive been on the mission.. :(

That's ok, we will put it back on you when you get home and then you can ride bikes with us :) you'd be great at it!!! Learn lots on Sunday's at church? Still teach class? Do you still do genealogy stuff on pdays? How's that going?

stilll teaching and talking and doing everything.. ;) haha i did last week becasue i had time its good im filling out alittle pamplet that they gave me about the family tree.. but other times im doing things for the house, for the mision, sending pics o the Clean house to the hernama madsen.. things like that :) 

Super!!! How are the special kids/men and their family? How are garments holding up? Crave any food from home?

the special kids are doing good they work and sell gum outside of stores.. its kind of sad.. but its what they do. there mom told me that there was a point when the bishop let them try and bless the sacrement.. but they messed up to many times so they dont let them anymore.. umm ive been craving cookie dough.. idk if you could find like a dry pakge of cookie dough and all i have to do is put a egg in it and ya its delicious. or somehting like that. ;)

I can do that :) great that the bishop gave them the opportunity and that they participate in the ordinance, if I remember right, you said they pass the sacrament, I'm sure a very humbling sight! 

yes they pass it, and its great!!!

That's funny, does she ask for pic of your house? Getting what you need every week? Have enough money? Know that there is extra, grandad Rhett gave you 25.00 for bday, he is doing good :) Freddy asks about you every time we see him and fine unga says hi and go get em ;) 

hahaha tell Grandpa Rhett thanks so much and tell the Coaches Hola and im using alot of the things that they taught me in the mission. :)

but mom ya its time again.. thanks so much!!! ill talk wth you next week! be safe! tell the bros i love them and tell Superman to keep flying high! :) love you mom thanks for everything! 
Con amor Elder Weaver

I love you, please be very, very safe, listen and pray for the Holy Ghost to guide you-keep up the amazing pace you have set for yourself, be strong!  Enjoy conference and we will be watching with you!!! Love you justeroo, treasure this hour beyond words-thanks for taking the time to chat with me! Be super duper-happy healthy and safe-live mom xoxos

Mom! thats a great song!! haha tell Tiffany HOLA :) haha im glad jax is doing great!! in the pictures.. hes tall an big!! wow! is he taller than dad!??? you look good too mom!! glad to see all you guyys! way to go jax beating Fremont!! WOot Woot!! The other day i was thinking about the Book of Mormon.. and i honeslty was thinking why wouldnt someone want ot accept another book that talks about Jesus Christ and is a tesimony of his divine life.. like why not!!??? 
This week was oh just so grea.. haha the mouse pioson worked! got home one night and there was a huge rat just dead on the floor... thats so thats great! and this week we are looking to have a baptism on friday!! im super excited for Diana! ive taught her alone about 2 times now becasue my comp is just to busy playing his flute or watching his videos on the computer,,, but im good i learn and she is super cool with me she drew me a pic the other day of my house ;) haha she wvery cute and has faith in Jesus. :) Yesterday about 30 min beofre church the consolar of the bishop asked us to talk.. so i talked about covenants and i also blessed the sacrement for the first time in spansih!! i have 10 and a half months and just barely blessed the sacremttn! ha then we taught sunday school! so.. we had the family of 6 show up!! and they are getting super close to getting marrired and they have 2 kids that can get baptized! and they live close to some members that have been helping out so much! the Zone conference was alright... it was very hard for me to understand there concept.. they were basically saying if we teach someone in the street, they are new inv.. but im not goping to count themm.. ha they all just want numbers., i know that numbers are important but they arent numbers they are people. so we need to teach them like they are people not numbers.. ;) haha thanks so much mom!! i apprecuiate it! maybe ill ride the bike when i get back! im super skinhny.. and the air could basiclally jkust go through me.. ;) haha glad that everyone is doing good! im doing better! little by little with my comp.. we are moving. 

Wow what a great week, I have been praying for a family!! So glad about Diana too!!! And the dead rat-bonus!!! So have you heard is pres back to normal and better? How was zone conf? Do you get to baptize?

i know the family is super cool!! i have a recording of the rat, but its to big to send.. haha its pretty funny! i havent hear anything from pres.. the Zone conference was ok.. talked about numbers.. i think Diana wants the bishop to baptize her. not for sure

 
Jordan, sounds super good!!!! tamales ..... yummmmm de mullet nergro 

 

divisions with elder Villegas.. hes dead.. but he helped me to realx.. it was good to talk english.. hes from maple mtn.. utah and goes home in november

;) you and elder V, look pretty chill :) I'm so glad things were better this week, dad just read his email he says your gomer, big smiles, super smiles haha!! Did you hear watsons getting married? What on for this week, besides baptism? What did you do today? Any feelings about next transfer? Think Hernandez will leave? Whose dog is it? That would be good for Diana have that connection with bishop might make her continue to be strong after you leave :)

umm ya one of his other comps told me and sent a pic

Where do you email from? What's up for the week and today? Fhe? Think Hernandez will be transfer next time? Will you get to watch conf at church house? 

this week we are going to have elder V come and give the interview for Diana an dhave the baptsim friday and we might be having a Fhe tomorrow night with Diana and her family!! with the biishhpop!

I think He is leaving... this is his 3 change here and i to be honest feel like hes going to the city... that will be in october! i was aking about  conference, i think we are going to watch it in the church and ill be able to watch it in Englsih witht the oother gingos! :)  E Villegas is a good guy! but hes got a pretty bad potty mouth.. :D

Awesome, has her family been coming too? Be sure to get pictures, ;) did you do anything fun for zone conf or just talks? Eat fish yet? What do you like best about this area? 

her bother who is 14 and her sister who is 12 and her come to church.. her mom and dad work on sundays... somtimes.. i think its been about 2 yrs that they havent gone to church. but the kids go, because they havbe a testimony! :) the Zone conf, as just talking.. no fish..... sadly-- and i think i like the food better here.. not sure why but its differnet. in some ways it good! 

Wow, potty mouth elder-haha!!! That's awesome you get together with other gringos :) will you get to see priesthood session also?  So how was Independence Day? Did everything shut down? Celebrate?

yup!! ill be able to see everthing! its was regaular.. had to come home a hour early.. but ya nothing else! there is one guy that asks me for money all the time.. hes like hey the mexicans work hard in your country, so give me money guedo! so one day i talked to him.. and i stood up for myself, and was straight wityh him, and now..... we are cool, like hes my mexican buddy! haha saw him tdoay! and ya.. we are cool! ;)

:) so great kids go, what great examples to so many, even here!!! Tell them I admire them and their dedication to the gospel :) do you find that most kids stay in school and graduate from high school or do they have to start working at a young age to help at home? Are your taxis regular ones or the 3 wheeled things? How's the rain been? Shoes do well? Last week you asked for a dog whistle... How come?

alot of them if they are poor poor they start working.. one girl is 12 and she is working.. blows my mind.. ha, here they dont have motos.. or 3 wheeled taxis. how dumb. ;D the rain has been wet.. ;) no actually it hasnt rained very much and whenn it does its in te night time. a member asdked for a dog whitsle.. but now like the whole family is asking for things.. and saying that they can pay for it.. but i really dont want to... hahah have that mind set.. 

;)? Was he like trying to rob you? Did you ever give him money? Learning to cook Mexican food? Make tortillas?

no.. but he talked very strongly at me.. ha nope didnt give him money.. gave him a pamplet and said read it and tell me what it says then ill give you money. ;) ha nope.. i cant cook amercian food, or mexican food... 

Can you not cook because kitchen isn't up to date? Crave anything that I can send? Good you gave him a pamphlet, teach him that's more valuable than money ;) I'm sure the poor are overwhelming and to think of our life's how spoiled we are, are there things you want me to send for neighbors, really want dog whistle? I can put together a package and send next week....

the kitchen is not uptdate.. ha i was thinking about that during the week and i always forget.. im gonna right it down. and have a list for you next week! ;) could you send just a dog whistle???? and with the link with the video, have to download it.. and ya there is the video.

That's a bummer about kitchen! Do you eat out a lot? Be sure to make me a list and don't be shy :) I'm excited to see video, but not;)) a rat!!! Did it eat all your d-con? How's your downstairs neighbors, bishop family? Jax blessed sacrament first time in sac mtg with dad, did a good job ;) I would love to hear you do it in Spanish, we will have to visit the Spanish branch when you get home ;)

dont eat out alot just eat something easy to make like a sandwhich, and the family is good its jsut the bishop and his wife,  the rat has a baby... ;) and ya i think it ate the food pioson! thatll be good and me nd jordan can bless it together!!! :)

Here we go again my friend how life in world? Thing here are goooood I got 4th place in my race Saturday so I'm happy with that. The first five of us lapped the rest of the field. It was fun. On Sunday me and jax blessed the Sacrament together for his first time in church. That's always a neat opportunity. Enough about me how about you? Are you being patient with the comp? Some times it take awhile to teach so be patient love him and try to understand were he is coming from. I'm sure his life growing up was a little different than yours, you have always worked very hard and not all people are like that. Just try to make the best of it. It's not always easy it always takes work. And I know you can do that keep it up and smile be happy you could be home stuck in the mud with me yelling at you :))))
Love you bud make it GOOOOOD.       Super sons
Dad


Father, i saw the video of your Beefy legs.. wow.  right now ive got carne asada piernas.. ha that sgood with jax! did you cry!!??? i did.. our little boy is all growded up ;) i am praying for patience and charity and love.. and ive actaully seen a difference in me.. in my atitude and its all good.. the things that use to bug me, now its just a matter of using the charirty and love to help him get more motivated to work, when we talk.. its normally about how when he gets back hes gonna get married to so and so.. and its been hard to not think bad about him.. wont lie ive slipped a little and have gotten prideful, but the lord is changing both of us. hope things are good!!! people are jealous that my dad is ross Weaver.. i telll some people, and then they just sit in wonder.. like wow... can it really be the son of Superman.. ;) love youdad have a great week! 

Love supermans Son Elder Weaver
 
 this is Dafne in Etla.. got baptized when i left.. she got a baby coming to.. ha and his name is David

President! how are you?! hopefully better! this week was a good one!  we didn divisions and i was able to relax a little with Elder Villegas.. we had a good relaxing day and we still had 6 lessons and 3 news! and i learned that i can still work hard but be relazxed about it. and the zone mtg was a little hard for me to understand.. what i got from it was that we should contact and try teaching the person right there and then and tell them about a 5 to 10 min resume and bamb.. they are new inv.. and we could count them as news.. ill be honest i like to teach in the streets, buses, cars.. and so forth. but in my ten month i never counted it as a lesson, becaseu i wanted to actaully enter their hosue get to know them a little bit, give a good lesson without distractions.. and then they would be counted as news.. but to be honest i know that numbers are people.. but the way the Zone Leaders made me feel the other day was like numbers numbers numbers.. and i wont lie i did like how they talked and gave good ideas on how we can give a breif resume..  im gonna try and make things work in my mind.. haha things with my comp are getting better. like you said little by little.. and thats how we are goimng.. ha little by little... but he doesnt seem like hes got the drive.. so  i dont know if hes board of the arrea or hes tired. but im trying to work on getting him more drive. more of the missioanry pase  in his walk. hope you are doing good and your wife!

 I loved the temple dedication!! it was great adn good to hear from Erying and Holland and feel like i was in the temple... oh and I met one of Jordans Comps!!!! elder Guil!!! he was supe cool! came up and talked with me and he lives about 45 min away from me! hes married and i think got kids! ha good to see him!!

SUPERMAN....

By now most of you have likely heard the reports that I was shot in a robbery attempt in Juchitan. Many of those reports contain some inaccuracies. I was shot through both calves by a single bullet and was not seriously injured as the bullet did not hit any bones, nerves or arteries. 
After handing the robber the money from my wallet, another patron of the restaurant attempted to restrain the assailant and the gunman fired. I was not shot because I was resisting the robbery attempt as some reports have suggested.

I am recovering well and am confined to home for 10 days or so. We are very appreciative of the outpouring of love and concern from you, your families, church members here in Oaxaca, friends and family at home and missionaries who have completed their service in the Mexico Oaxaca Mission, the Land of Joy and Miracles.
Oaxaca remains a relatively safe place for missionaries as there is violence everywhere. We know the Lord will continue to watch out for and protect you missionaries serving here in Oaxaca as long you follow the rules established for your protection.
Please do not be afraid and press forward in faith.
We are eager to put this incident behind us and continue the work of the Lord in this marvelous mission.
We love you all.
President and Sister Madsen

Presidente, well this week was a little hard.. only found 3 news and we are still contacting alot.. but we need to get more practice at it.. so we are going to do at least 2 practices a day.. in the hosue to get better at our contacts so that its not a ruotine.. i hope that everything is good and ok with you!! heard and read about what had happened.. and youve been in my prayers. hope you are healing fastly.. this week has been a little rough with my comp.. but still little by little we are both making the adjustments to make things work.. the most spiritual thing that happened this week was with a new convert, we were talking abou the plan or salvation and it was just so comforting to tell him that the whole plan was possible though Jesus Christ.. and how our loving Heavenly Father gave us a plan to return and live with him. i felt the spirit so srtong.. and i hope that we can follow working hard.. but make the necessary adjustments so that our contacts are more successful. hope you get better soon! 



these are just 2 of the special kids... theyare the best!!! :) 
 
found this lovely thing outside our door when we came home one night.

But the hard thing is when i feel like we need to go somewher my comp makes excuses.. and then we start to argue a little and then we dont havbe the spirit to lead and guide us.. and i cant just role over and let him do his routine and visit the same member and people.. hha we need to help people to get baptized...

;) trying to find a nice truck to be my car/ company truck...tell me about the 3 new contacts you have, we will continue to pray for comp, has he said why he is there? 
i asked him that the other day.. we sat down to be serious and i told him how i felt and asked... why are you really here? and he told me all this stuff.. and started to cry, and said that hes got a sickness... and he could die within 2 yrs.. and he has now jsut started the missiona and wanted to be a missioanry, and his brother was. 
But mom... the thing was when he told me he has a sickness and sometimes out of random he doesnt have energy and so we have to walk even slower... i dont know if i should say this but i didnt feel like it was true.. what he was saying.. and he would tell me the name of the sickness..he said it was personal.. so dont know what to do.. ha 

Hmmm kinda a hard situation, if he us sick maybe he needs help, let zone leader know, maybe something not so demanding on his health would be a good fit, ? So hard, sorry, life's lessons not always easy ones, hang in there and continue to keep your pace, the lord knows what's in our hearts and the truth :) so what about the work, who are you teChing this week besides Diana and family? ;)

thats one of the problems... haha we dont have anyone else.. other than her.. becayse calos and Jose left.. so we only have her. and we need new inv.. haha we need to contact a lot and get new inv... so if ya could pray that we can be led to a family of 5 :) haha But mom time for me to go! thanks so much for chatting with me.. sorry if its a chore for you sometimes.. and im only here to wine to ya.. butthanks... haha i feel alot better.. :) haha i love you so mcuh, and miss you so much! have a great week! be safe and happy andHEALTHY :) love you all!

President, this week was a little rough.. we went looking for news and kept looking, and we will keep looking for news.. but we contacted and prest service and noone let us in.. but we are going to make it happen this week somehow... i can see that things are getting a little better with my comp... he is literally looking at my example... ha he has started to buy the same food i do, wash his clothes the way i do, and hes being a little more receptive to me and what i think.. although the other day i thought and felt we should go to a hosue of a less active and he wanted to go to a members how like he had done the past 3 weeks.. on sunday.. but i told him we need to go see ythis sisster, and he said shes not there i know the area better than you and she wont be there.. but we went and she was there and like things happen... she has some problems happening right now.,.. doesnt feel like she has a testimony anymore of the church.. and so we went and talked with her about her testimony is Jesus Christ and i felt like that really hit home.-.. im glad that we have the spirit to lead and guide us.. but sometimes its hard to follow it.. family is great and im happy and learning! thanks President!

I often have to double take when Jax does certain things, he has your mannerisms and acts so much like you and still looks like you...you are a great example to so many, let your light so shine, Justeroo! The area around the picture of Juan, looks very poor, are you in a very, poor area, more humble than you were in before? do you have outside pictures of your apartment? anymore mice? eating well? You have been given a lot of responsibilites because the Lord and your mission Pres know that you can handle things, use your notes, make lists and continue to read and study and pray :) Diana.... Vasquez Mesa is the family! the dedication is Sunday!!! :) only for members... its been hard to tell some that they can enter,.. well we have alot of inv.. that live in the mtns more.. and they are more poor.. yes.. and some people are more humble.. but some have very locked catholic hearts. im eating good.. this past week the mouse got in my bread.. and so i threw it out... but i bought rat poison today! and i put my bread up hire so the mice cant get to it-.. my scrip this week is 1 corinthiiso 10 13.. Great scripture about temptation, awesome!!! feeling better about your bible skills? how is sunday lessons going at church? be thinking of things for christmas box, I know its a ways off, but I will get stuff going for it...not sure how often mission office will deliver to you being on the coast :) just a little bit better.. the lesons are going good!! i think the ward mission ld is going to start to teach and we will jsut help every now and then.. but who knows... ya im not sure either.. it might take a little longer. ;) how are you mom!!??? everything good witht the family!!? jaces cist!? jordan.. girls!? :) I am doing good, riding my bike when I can, I try and walk every day 3-4 miles and listen to the bofm, I am finishing Mormon, :) Jaces cyst is something called a lipoma, took a half hour to remove, three stiches inside and glued it shut and put steri strips on it, he has not had a headache since, :) they sent some to a lab to be tested and sent the rest with him in a jar, pretty grose, looks like chicken fat... it was a fatty tumor, I think he will be fine and its healing well.... Jordan went on a blind date with a girl named Karli, she is a rm and we like her alot, I think she likes him too, Ill send a picture, she has asked him out twice and I think it could go somewhere if jordan would be more open to it and not push her away just because we like her....he says he is trying to be independant, but you know, sometimes we are actually right about things-haha!!! Jax was pretty vague about the game, he did not start, Jones said he wanted a Junior to have the chance, well the junior was blowing it and Jax went in every now and then the first 1/2, then Jones said he would start second half, Jax was the only change they made on D and they held them to 40 yards the whole half, he had two solo tackles and a few group tackles...he was on fire, hope that it continues....he is soo excited for all of you to be there and watch him! you left big shoes to fill!!! ohhhhh im so glad they are all doing good!! :) and you and dad!! :) i hope you guys can have a great week!!! and know that i love you!! i hope Jordan can pray and see what God says before he says no to the girl.. haha ive been praying for jace and i hope he is all good!! and dating aswell!! you guys are the best! ive never had a family so great!! hope you all have a gerat week! and happy early bday next week jace!! hope its a good one1!! jax keep killing it in ball! and dad good luck with lotaja!! youll be great!! and mother :D thanks so mcuh for the love and support.. and chatting.. its nice to vent and releiev stress.. even though i cant spell anymore.. ;) haha thanks for everything and have a great week!! love elder weaver :) I love you justeroo, be happy and keep smiling!!!
