Emails and Letters

We have received 3 letters and 2 emails so far from Elder Flake.
His P-Day is on Tuesday and this past Tuesday no email. We checked at least 20 times-we were really sad. However tonight we received one. He had sat down on Tuesday to email and went blank on his passwords. They allowed him to email today because part of their P-Day is taken up with service.
It was such an incredible email. He said how much easier it is getting. Yesterday a new set of missionaries reported and it made him so glad that he is over that part. It was really hard.
He has given us some advice: don't sweat the small things-let them go. We all need to hear this.
He has told the kids to remember to pray, obey us as parents, keep playing musical instruments and be good.
Josh has already grown so much. Spanish is coming along great. He said the second night they were already praying, singing, and teaching in the language. Amazing. The Lord can help us do anything.
We love you!!!
