A Note of comfort and encouragement from Sister Torres

Here's a note to me from Sister Jensen's companion, Sister Torres. She only speaks spanish, so it's written totally in spanish. My husband helped me translate it, and, basically, it's a note of support, love and comfort to the Mission President's wife, from one woman to another. She said that because my husband receives about 150 letters from missionaries every week, she wanted to send one to me. How sweet of Sister Torres to think of me! (I've shared some hugs, "girl talk", and fun times already with Sister Torres and her companions, Sister Jensen, and Sister Petty, while they were waiting for their interviews with President Benton, plus, both Sister Torres and Sister Jensen were sick last week, so, I tried to fill in for their mothers in the "nurturing" department.

For those of you who know spanish, or want to learn it, here's what Sister Torres said in her note: (You'll see where she has a sense of humor. That's what makes her so sweet and fun at the same time!)
