Daniel Christian Stoddard
hey guys... i`m online right now, but i`ll be back in the afternoon... last week the power went out mid email DOH!
Family
Ah! We were wondering if the hangouts counted as the email!  
Daniel Christian Stoddard
no i wrote out a halfway email...
Family
Emma is finishing the regular email now.
Daniel Christian Stoddard
oh ok!  
Family
How are you?!?!?
Daniel Christian Stoddard
yeah the power went out and that was that
really good on saturday we had a baptism!
Family
Really? Who?
Daniel Christian Stoddard
one of the youth who`s been coming to seminary
Josel
Family
Oh so cool! I cannot believe nonmembers we’re coming to seminary!
What a great picture!!!!
Could you look any happier?!?! ❤❤❤
Daniel Christian Stoddard
my comp baptised him in the river... and he hit his head on a rock!
Family
Hahahaha! Poor kid! That’s awful!
Daniel Christian Stoddard
i gave my talk on sunday about how how him hitting his head on the rock was like helaman 5:12 which talks about how we need to be built upon the ROCK of christ
we gave the camara to a kid and he took a bunch of baptism pics
Family
Was he cracking up???
Daniel Christian Stoddard
yeah it was pretty funny everybody was laughing
Family
I bet!
Daniel Christian Stoddard
so that was pretty cool.  the other crazy thing about josel is that his dad is a pastor... we were super nervous to ask him permission, but he gave it to us as if it were nothing!
it`s crazy how sometimes we get so worked up over nothing haha
Family
Yes, I think I can relate to that. 🤣
what a cool dad! i think i could take some lessons!!
So cool that his dad was okay with everything!
Daniel Christian Stoddard
yeah we said a prayer with the seminary class before we went to ask him.  it`s so cool how our heavenly father softens hearts!
Family
wow, yeah. that is an experience worth remembering for everyone involved.
Daniel Christian Stoddard
but yeah all good this week yesterday the bishop of the sonaguera ward (sabà`s just an extension) so the bishop is in charge.  so he came to visit yesterday and he said he had the class for afterward under control... then after we finished with sacrement meeting he told me he forgot to prepare a class... so i gave the class too... remember when i talked last week about talking a whole bunch of hogwash?  that was my class yesterday... but it was all good
it`s something i`ve learned in the mission... to pull a class out of nowhere ahaa
Family
that is going to serve you so well.
Daniel Christian Stoddard
haha it was ok cause i usually teach the class, it was just by suprise and caught me a little off guard
Family
Still really impressive, though.
(Allie)
Daniel Christian Stoddard
what else happened this week???  i can never remember when i get into the computer and then i remember after
what`s uip with you guys?  all ready for the trip?
Family
Haha! Me too! Every time I try to email you I’m like “What should I say? Do I have a life?” So yeah. Difficult. (Emma)
I never remember what to says
We’re kinda ready
The house is empty
The movers were movers but not cleaners
So we had to call in some cleaners after the movers
Daniel Christian Stoddard
haha that`s kinda funny
when is your flight?  tomorrow no?
Family
Yep! Tomorrow at 6:45! (Which is one in the morning in Ukraine)
Daniel Christian Stoddard
wow!  and how long is the plane trip? Do you have any layovers (stops on the way)? 
Family
Yep
The first bit of the plane is to Amsterdam, that’s going to be 7 hours, and then from there to Ukraine is 4.

Daniel Christian Stoddard

my companion wants the recipe for the penut coconut balls you sent haha
Family

Daniel Christian Stoddard

Daniel Christian Stoddard

Daniel Christian Stoddard
the first day we taught seminary.  just josel and jorge went

Family
The apt is Northpoint. It looks nice. Lindsey lived there her first semester and ended up switching. I don’t know all the reasons, but she is so very different than you and Allie.
The apt is close to the campus and the few restaurants in Rexburg.
And by restaurants, I mean cafe Rio. ;) hahaha!
