Chels is Senior Companion!

Sister Walker's is now the Senior Companion! Here's some highlights from this week's letter:

Hand is good!!! Oh the life of Sister Walker! The work is going great! We set Krystal for baptism for March 28th!!! I am SO EXCITED!!!
I have a new companion now, her name is Sister Jernigan and she is from North Carolina near Charlotte. She has been out 6 weeks longer than me but I am the Senior Companion... How did that happen! Yikes… I don’t know! I was really scared at first but now I’m ok with the whole thing!
Sister LuPeni got off ok and now I hope that she is still doing ok because I have heard that they are having a Tsunami in Tonga right now….hmmm… She cried lots and lots when she left. She was having some super comp separation anxiety problems when I dropped her off at the airport and she had to be by herself! It was sad to see her go (mostly because I am going to miss having a Polynesian Companion who goes to lots of Polynesian things) but I look forward to once again learning from a new companion!
This area is growing up very well! I’m so proud of it! Haha! We went to the temple today and it was glorious as usual!!!
I will let you know… IN DETAIL… how the doctor goes nest week so that you won’t have to call Sister Christensen! Ha!!! I love you all SO much!
Make good choices, don’t do drugs, be happy and continue sharing the gospel!Love, ME!!!

The Things Kids Say

I walked into my bedroom and found Daiken jumping on my bed. When he saw me he said, "Hey Nana - your bed smells really good"

Today Daiken asked me to hold his stuffed animal, a pet dinosaur. I asked him if the dinosaur liked to have his tummy rubbed like a puppy does.
Daiken thought for a moment and then said: "You have to be grown up, like three years olds, to pet his tummy. Or old like you Nana... how old are you?"
Nana: "I'm like 99, that's what Brailee says"
Daiken: "Oh, well, you have to be a grown up like three years olds and 99 years olds to pet a dinosaur's tummy."

The other day Brailee, Daiken and Estee were busy pulling petals off of some flowers that Britnee had on display. When she caught them she asked them to please pick up the petals and throw them away. Daiken and Estee picked up a few petals and then quickly disappeared. Brailee remained picking up. Britnee asked: "Brailee, Why did you think you could do this? Why do you think this is OK?" Brailee very calmly stated, "Because we are children."

Britnee recently took Brailee with her when she went for an ultrasound. While the tech was measuring the fluid, Brailee asked: What are you doing?
Tech: Measuring the fluid
Brailee: What's fluid?
Tech: It's the water where the baby lives
Brailee: (shocked) Can it breathe?
Tech: Yes, the baby can breathe while it's in the water.
Brailee: Oh, is it a dolphin? Wait - No - dolphins have to come up out of the water to take a breath
Tech: (laughing) No, it's really a baby.

Britnee: (to Brailee) Brailee, I need you to have a happy face.
Brailee: But I just want to have a regular face.

Brailee: Nana, do you exercise?
Nana: I try to.
Brailee: Why? So you can have a baby?

Britnee: (to Brailee) Maybe we can have Grandpa or Daddy cut it 'cuz they are strong.
Brailee: Yah! They are! And Nana is the nice one and you're ... the mom.

Britnee: (to Brailee) You sure are a happy girl today.
Brailee: I know! I think maybe I'll listen to you today!

For my birthday Britnee wanted me to call ahead before I came home from work so the kids could surprise me. She and I secretely communicated on the phone and then Brailee said she wanted to talk to me. When Brailee came to the phone she said, "Hi Nana - when you come in the door we will be hiding and then we will jump and say "Surprise!" so you will need to come in and show us how happy you are." (so much for surprises huh?)

Brailee: "Nana, Can I have some of your drink?"
Nana: "Sure honey, but it's root beer. Do you still want some?"
Brailee: "Oh, No. I don't like roots"

Daiken: "Nana, where is my chapstick?"
Nana: "Honey, I'm not sure. You didn't see it downstairs?"
Daiken: "No"
Nana: "Hmmmm, what should we do?"
Daiken: "You can just buy me a new one"
