Moving Forward, Las Cruses

Hello Family!

“Around here, however, we don't look backwards for very long. We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious...and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.”  Walt Disney

I am really feeling that this is applicable to me right now as I have officially crossed the threshold of the first half of my mission. One can get very caught up in looking back at everything accomplished and feel complacent knowing they have done good- whatmore is there to do? Or one can look back with regret, knowing they did not do enough. Or one can take the advice from Walt - LOOK FORWARD! look back to the past to learn but then be curious in your future! what does it hold for you? There are doors waiting to be open and paths waiting to be hiked (speaking of - we went on an awesome hike this morning to an old hotel and sanitorium that was so neat! I was blown away! and it was so pretty too! and when I went to take out my camera to take a picture - it was dead.yay. ) and there are new things to do? What will you do new this week? Who will you talk to and make a day brighter? What door will you open? 

Here is to moving forward! Each and every day. Don't look back for very long - BE CURIOUS! add that to President Hinckley's list of Be's.. Is that blaspheme? no. Be curious. it is good for you - and Be interested. not interesting. that'll do great things for you too. sorry I really don't have much to say this week - but all is well inthe paradise of Las Cruces! and Carlos is getting baptized this weekend! yay! 

I love you all! and know that I love this work and I love the Lord.

SIster Stuart

Oh I had a question to ask that I forgot to - 

If Mary spent time in France and they didn't have the 'ew' there still must have been a way to pronouce Stuart. Carlos is French. He cannot seem to say it - it always comes out something like Schuwart - how do the French say it?
