Some Questions Answered

Prologue by Mom: Wow! Daylon did an excellent job of answering some long standing questions I've had in this email. Mom is a happy camper today!

Mom (and anyone else wanting to send a package before January...*coughJENNYcough* *coughGRANDMAcough*) PLEASE DON´T! With my experience having changes in the past, I realized I had managed to accumulate more stuff than I thought I had and I barely fit everything last time. Plus I have to travel an hour in bus to MaipĂș with my luggage and everything, so it will seriously be an inconvenience to get packages before changes. HOWEVER, there is a possibility I will have changes at the end of the next change and if that happens (obviously I´ll let you know if it does) THEN it would be ok to send packages before the year´s up. Sorry if that upsets any of you, but I seriously won´t have room for even a lollipop...

Speaking of packages, I got one from you (Mom) last week and I definitely didn´t have the patience to wait 3 more weeks to open it..... :) Happy birthday to me hahahaha. Actually, I´m glad I opened it when I did because that morning my last pen ran out of ink. Luckily there were a few in the package :) Also, I´m keeping the poster in it´s plastic so I can keep it for after the mission. I love it! Thanks :) (from Mom: It was a poster of Helaman's Army)  Oh! And don´t tell the other kids this, but when I looked through the album and saw Alyza standing in all those flowers with her hands on her hips.....I may have shed a tear or two....and taken a photo of it....and plan on printing it and keeping it in my journal.....yeah....  (from Mom: I sent Daylon a photo book. To see the photo he is talking about, click here)

I did happen to send a letter to Gigi about the time I sent yours and Anna´s, if memory serves, because I felt that I needed to. The first thing I want to do when I get home, after I get released, is go visit her, no matter where she is. If she´s with Great Grandpa in Utah then we´ll take a road trip :) (from Mom: Daylon's Great Grandma is getting older (91!) and more bedridden. I mentioned that if he wanted to tell her anything special, this would be the time to do it, but it sounds like he was already impressed to do so.)

Yes, I wrote the H. family the same day you first told me to :) If I don´t write things down, I usually don´t remember by the next week, sorry :P But I wrote them and got a nice response back last week :) (from Mom: The H's are a great family we know who have helped very generously with Daylon's mission expenses)

The street names, well, only exsist for those who´ve lived here a while. We´re on the street Los Andes, but I have no idea if it´lll show up with a name on Google Maps. But anyway, Los Andes (street) Isla de Maipo (town) is where I´m at. It might be easier to find Talagante and go a little more South...East, I believe. A little more South-east.

Mom - Read the first part of 1 Nephi 1:1

Dad - Do the same as mom :) Also, you said I had a letter in the mail about 2 months ago....did you ever send it?

Trevin - private, not posted here :)

Anna - When do you start at Stapley?

Allie - Good luck with your baptism :) (Is it this week, or next?)

Alyza - Dayday will send you some more candy for your bday :)

I don´t have a lesson this week because I just don´t have time to type it all up, sorry!


- Elder Daylon Crider
p.s. For pictures, two short videos will be coming in seperate emails :) (from Mom: I inserted the videos below, but I don't think they're working. Grr. Okay, I'll try posting them on Facebook too, so head on over to Lecia Crider and maybe you can see them there. Who knows?)
