Hey Everybody!
What a week right? It is amazing how much can change in just a short week. I have a lot of pictures, but I need to find a better way to get them on the computer because my camera goes through batteries so fast. And batteries are expensive here. Conference weekend too! I have not had the opportunity to watch the sessions yet. We are a weekend behind so this coming weekend Cambodia will be having the conference weekend. I heard that 3 new temples were announced. Colorado, Idaho, and Canada. Good places. One day there will be one in Cambodia.
We had a big change to the family this week. Little baby Caety has come into the world. Of course we all wish her the best with her new mom and my sister Heather. Let us all continue in prayer in behalf of our new gift. I am excited to meet her in a year and a half. I will miss the diaper stage mostly and get the fun years of playing with her. I will miss a lot of important time of bonding with her so be sure to leave some space, for a not so big guy anymore, in that tiny little heart.
Also Hayden went through the temple this week. More great news. I have been gone for 6 months and Mother's day is coming up so I will get a phone call home soon.
My new area is booming right now. We have a lot of lessons everyday, but the next few weeks are going to be a little rougher. It is Khmer new year's next week and a lot of people will be leaving the city for a week or two. The actual holiday lasts for 3 days. We don't do much proselyting during that time either. It is going to be an exciting time.
I am happy to have my prayers answered today. I have spent endless moments praying for all of you back at home. This gospel in true and The Lord does answer prayers. Thank you all for your support and I love you all so much!
Love,
Elder Nordgren
