We received Taylor's first letter today. :) I immediately burst into tears and just held it close. Justin laughed and asked if I was going to read it. I must admit it took me a moment to compose myself. Anyway this is what she wrote...
May 13, 2015 First Day
I made it to the MTC! My companion is Hermana Kelley Krage. She is from San Diego (so it is almost like having Elise here) and she is 19 also. Our room and classroom is on the top floors of their buildings; so we sure get our exercise! Our district here is so nice. There is one sweet sister training leader who has been here 3 weeks and is helping me so much. I have never been so overwhelmed before because it literally was a walk in and immediate Spanish and only Spanish. I don't know a thing and almost broke out in tears several times. We met our STL this evening and one asked how is was going and she turned to me and I told her how overwhelmed I was. She hadn't taken any Spanish before either so she understands and I love it. I share a room with me and 3 others. They are all so nice. Hermana Krage is going to Independence Missouri and the other 2 are going to Nicaragua. The rules are so strict and it is so scary and I know absolutely nothing. But the spirit is so strong all the time. It is incredible we all definitely need a lot more training, but we will survive. One day down!
With love,
Hermana Gregory
Also, P-day is on Thursday, but the first one will be next Thursday.
