Lacey gave birth on Saturday the 10th!! Her little boy is perfect, and I can't wait to meet him in person when he turns 1 haha! A good amount of people asked me if I felt any of her contractions hahahaha the answer is yes, yes I did..... Jk. Welllllll I did have a stomach ache all day Saturday..... Sister Bean and I got to go to GRAND RAPIDS for the day on Friday and it was a little scary because it was for a doctor's appointment but we are okay and everything's fine. I got to run it back in the hospital gown again and it reminded me of the MTC. We got to drive past the future temple grounds too and that was special!  Little miracle from our G-rap trip was getting to see Terry in Owosso on our way back (,: Terry was my first baptism in Michigan, and getting to see him again was THE highlight of my week. Terry was the first person I met who had a visible light bulb switch on when we talked about Jesus Christ's Gospel, and I will never forget my experiences teaching him. ...

Okay, so no actual miracle happened in the Bad River Bar in St.Charles, BUT I had the BEST cheeseburger I've ever had, so it's a miracle in my book. We talked to Tim, outside the bar, who was smoking a cigar and had a good convo about Jesus Christ's love for us!  I met Jacob this week (: he is 88 years old and told me the same story of when he was a firefighter 5 times, haha! He is so precious. I worked on his hands and painted a clear coat on his nails. I'm discovering how much I love serving in retirement homes! Old people just bring me joy. We met with Terry and Rex this week, and both lessons were insane. Everything Rex says just makes me want to cry haha the spirit is always so strong in his home.  Went running with the elders at 6:30am!!!  Short email today, it was a crazy day. I love you all, I really do. - Sister Clanton
