 Because Taiwan bu hui baobao🧐

Wow This week we were doing studies and I was trying to figure out how you would say I miss my mom's hugs in chinese in the most natural way. Finally we figured out 我很想念我媽媽的擁抱 (Mom I miss you!!) but then I asked my comp if she would ever say that and she laughed and said no because her mom doesn't hug her!!! Ah!! (No worries her mom really does love her a lot) but even after living here for over a year it still blows my mind how different the relationship culture is and this week it was especially apparent!! But anyway this week we had a lot of mothers tell us their trials with parenting and it was really eye-opening to see 1. how much God is really the perfect example of parenting and 2. WOW I'm so glad I'm not a mother yet:) We met with our relief society president and she told us a problem she was having with her grandson and even though she told us she wouldn't tell him she loved him we could see that she loved him so so so much and that she really was turning to God to help him. We also met with our friend this week and when I first met with her she didn't know how to pray or know who God and Jesus Christ really were but when we met with her she told us a huge worry she had about her son and then she told us how she was praying and that she told God that she would do all she could but that God had to make up the rest!! Wow it was so so powerful!! Anyway I know that our Heavenly Father really is a perfect father and that he loves us SO MUCH!! I know that sometimes we experience things that seem so unfair and so so hard but I PROMISE that He loves you and is there with you all the time but there truly is no way to grow without hard times. God really sees all that you can become and it really is amazing 💗 HAVE THE BEST WEEK EVER!!!!
