Oh man, Kimbo already had her baby huh? Wow! Thanks so much for the pics. My favorite was the one of Monty looking at him and his shirt, haha. But everything went fine - no problems with Jacob or with Kimbo?

Man, things have been so busy this week. I didn’t even remember until today. I opened my planner and it said “Kimbo’s baby is born”. This week has been nuts. We left here at 9 pm on Tuesday night - got to Eunapolis about 10:30 pm and then left for Itabuna at 4 in the morning. We got there about 8 am had zone conference until about 7 pm and then got back on a bus and went back to Eunapolis where we then had to wait for the next bus to Porto which didn’t leave until 2:30 am, so we sat at the bus station for about 3 hours. Anyways we got home about 4 am today, and then had an appointment at 11:00 am so we have just been out of it. My mind and body is just shot, but it was a good conference. And I forgot my camera at home. Sorry. I’ve really been out of it. Before we leave the house we always say a prayer and our testimonies, and today I was about to say the prayer and Elder Almeida said “You’re gonna leave like that?”...I had tucked in my shirt without buttoning it up... and I didn’t have a tie on or my name tag...ha. I was so out of it. But things are going good. Sounds like you guys are all doing good.

The last official day of this transfer is Mother’s day, but we won’t find out till the day after if anything will happen to us here. I’m almost sure one of us will leave and it really is like a 50/50 who would go or who would stay. But Elder Sanderson is excited. He has been in the same area for 5 transfers. That’s like 7 and a half months.

Man I don’t believe I have 11 months now. That means the next mark is a year! It’s insane. It sounds like we can only talk to girlfriends if they’re at our house though, so I’m not sure yet but it looks like I’ll just be calling you guys on Mother’s Day for the whole hour. I’m not sure which number yet. We get to call the day before and set it all up again like last time so I’ll have it all worked out by then. Well, I’m out of time on the internet but I love you all. Send a hug to my new nephew!! I’m praying for him and Kimbo.

Tchau com amor,

Elder Anderson

Kimberli and Jared's baby born today. His name is Jakob. Everyone is doing well! We sent these pictures to Tim today.
