Hey momma, The president's wife is nice, but shes clueless. She makes us food for the conferences, she told me shell get up at 3 in the morning to start cooking, which is really nice and really shows that she loves us, but she has no idea what missionary work is. neither of them. President just throws stuff out there without thinking without knowing what is going on. Like i get he was a 70 and im sure he knows 500 times more than me about the gospel, but he doesnt know these missionaries, and he doesnt know the rules, and he doesnt know a lot of things. He got mad at us for doing our daily planning in the morning, because in his mission they did it at night. That was 30 years ago, things change, the apostles say so. Also, his wife hasnt been going to conferences because she has a daughter here that is in school so she has to take her to school and stuff, which is really weird and a lot of people dont like it. Im sure its hard for them, but idk.  I feel like president and his wife are great people but they dont really understand what boots on the ground missionary work is, and until they understand that they arent going to be able to teach us how to be better missionaries. I think that was just revelation, because president clayton and his wife were always on divisions, President needs to go on divisions and get to know the missionaries and the work, and maybe buy them ice cream on divisions because everyone is still way afraid of him. Thanks momma. I found a wafflemaker a while back in one of the houses so i stole it, but then i lost it in my travels, but then i found it again. We havent made them yet, well probly make them next week when we come back to guadalajara. Jala is like 2 hours away, but next transfer we are going to transfer to an area in guadalajara so that it will be easier for president to have us on his coattails. Catch you next week, i love you
