The Road So Far...

(A/N: Hello everyone! I know it's the middle of the week, but today marks Hermana Ramos-Escobar's one year mark! A year ago today, she started her journey as a missionary for the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. She's obviously grown so much since she's entered the MTC and she still has so much more to grow and learn from these last six months. I'm going to share with you guys a little snippet from our email conversation this last week and then fill the rest of this post with photos from the beginning of her mission to now. Enjoy! :) 

P.S. To anyone who caught the Supernatural reference...you are now my new favorite person. ;) )

ME: Love you lots Gabby! Hope you are doing well and taking care of yourself! Remember that you can't control other people's actions or decisions. It's not on you. You can guide them and counsel them, but you can't force them to do anything. Don't push yourself too hard. Take time to pause and reflect. :)

GABBY: Aly there's no time to pause and reflect!! I only have 6 months left!! Just kidding...No I do reflect a lot...I really appreciate how you asked me in what ways I've changed...I really am a different person but yet down deep inside I'm still me. I know I'm still going to be a brat to you! I'm still going to be myself...but I'm going to have such a strong testimony of Jesus Christ and this Gospel! I Love it!
