semana 24- Salta

¡Hola Todos!
Quick questions: any advice for helping out a 1year-2month old child that just scoots around on her butt and doesn’t have the knowledge of how to crawl or stand up (she walks with the help of mom just fine)? And I have an hermana requesting a good waffle recipe (it took me about 10-seconds to remember what that word was in English!), of course making it from scratch.
It sounds like the family has had a fun week! I loved the pictures, especially the torch on top of mom’s cake—HILARIOUS! I’m glad you enjoyed the arroz con leche recipe! I’ll be looking for more recipes here pretty soon ;) Yeah, the winter olympics really don’t get covered down here; I’ve heard nothing from the people. Hope it’s fun though!
I got another baptism this past Saturday!!! Rosa Quiroga is the sister of the Relief Society President in another ward and has put off listening to the missionaries for 20 years and finally decided it was time with us! We’re currently working on teaching her 19, 15, and 14 year old kids too—perhaps baptizing the 14-year-old by the end of this transfer! Speaking of, that’s coming up really quick! I could very well be headed out of La Loma for good! We’ll see...
I started reading the Book of Mormon in the MTC and I just finished it again this past week. Everyone really should read the book: it will change your life for the better! I have read through it 3 times now and I’m still finding amazing things in there!
One of the hermanas in San Lorenzo fed us pomegranites!!! That’s just the 2nd one I’ve eaten in my entire life and I love them!
As for the weather, it’s very humid now, thanks to the fact that it rained just about every day this past week! It made carrying 10-kilo bags of flour 17 blocks to another member’s home difficult! I dare you guys to try it out ;)
That’s about it for my week. I’m also in a hurry so I don’t really have too much time to double-check...
I love you all!
