Back in the Saddle Again!



Mom,   

      I have been kind of worried because my stitches weren’t healing as fast as I hoped, but the Sisters have been taking care of it for me!  The doctor took the stitches out last Tuesday and that little operation hurt worse than the cut itself--and they left one of the stitches in!! When the sisters were cleaning my wound, they found one was still half in so they had to dig it out! But I am doing okay!! My foot is not infected though, we made sure! 
      
      This week was pretty good though.  We are still teaching the Chinese man and he’s still on for a baptism on February 17th but, I’m afraid that I won’t be here because this will probably be my last week in Melaka. I’ve been here for five months and major transfers are being announced next Monday so I’ll probably be gone!! I wish that I could stay for the baptism, but I can’t count on it! His baptism will make number three for me! The Tamil family’s husband actually came back this week. He was sitting at the house when we showed up and the whole family acted like nothing happened! I still don’t trust him. Also, our new church is beautiful. 

     Mom, you would be proud of me! I can eat spicy food now and I actually really enjoy it; except, for  last night when this Indian family gave me the spiciest food I’ve ever eaten. I instantly starting sweating and my face got super, super red and a few tears may have welled up. The Indian family just started laughing--but they refused to eat that spicy food-- so I have a feeling that they did that on purpose.

     Everything else is great!! I love Melaka! Already almost 7 months down! I love you momma!!! Miss you!! Don’t worry about me. I am loving life!!
