Just ready to get out of the CTM. Love ya all.  Mom, just return the jersey. I'll send him one when I can, thanks. Love Elder Potts

Hola!

So, I only have 1 p-day left at the ctm. So I'm pretty happy to finally be on the last stretch. But it has been quiet the experience being here at the ctm and in Brasil. I don't know how to put it all into words. But i feel that i have grown up alot and know how to do things on my own. Thank you for all your letters and emails that lift me up. I know service is very important and that the Lord blesses us even when we dont know it. I know that I miss good old WA. But it is nice not having it rain all the time here. hahah. love you all and hope that eveything is going well back at home. I am soo happy! for you Natalie, I wish that i could have been there. love you all!

Hola!

MOM, How are you? I'm getting way excited to get out of here. Only two more p-days left, its crazy. And yes about my routine. It is never any different besides pday haha. I am really sad, but i will not be able to call you on moms day. About the jersey, yes original please and medium. I need to verify that it is correct address. love you soooooo very much mom. I miss you tons.       

DAD, how are things on the ranch? It seems everything is starting to grow again. How's wytte and bella and the chickens? I can't believe that it's been 7 weeks. I really can't wait to get out of the ctm. I love and miss you dad. You're a champion.      

NATE. my big brother. I can't tell you how much i miss you. it's so weird not hearing your voice and talking with you. School seems to be going well. I hope work is too, even though it is just work. I am pumped that you got that workout plan started. I hope that you are not stronger then me. haha. love you Nate alot, you are a champion.

JESS/KORT how are you guys? I  hope vegas is nice. That is pretty cool that you saw those NBA players. I miss you guys and love you guys sooo much. Jess you are my big sister and you are the best big sister in the world. Just remember that, and Kort you are ok too jk! You are the best too.

I only have 50 seconds left ahhhh, I love my whole family. They are the best in the world. Sorry if I didn't get you in

Oi!!

Hello Everyone,

I am so excited when I get to read my email on pday and read those words that lift up so much. I can't tell you how much I love you all. It's amazing how you get so humbled in just a short amount of time when you are away from the people you love and look up to. This week was alot better and I feel that I have new life. Maybe not 100 % because the MTC is sooo long and dreadful. But, I seem to be hanging in there. Thank you soo much, to all of you for your words and prayers. They mean soo much to me.  I love you all soo much. I still have 4 weeks left at the CTM but hopefully it will go fast. Sorry there is not much to write to you. I do the same thing everyday here, soo not much to inform you on.

Love you guys,  I love my family so very much.

Week 4 and hanging in there

Hello everyone,

I can't tell you how much i love hearing from you guys. As you know it has been a rough week for me. I guess I will start off by saying that I am going to stay here for the remainder of my ctm time. But I have to say that if I feel the same way when I get out on the Field that I need you to understand whatever my descion is that it will be ok.

Well on a different note I need to know who sends me all these sweet packages through mission ties. Wow its so humbling to know how loved you are. Thank you sooo very much it means soo much to me. I leave on May 24th for the Field. It is soo warm here but i like it. It's soo hard to write alot because there is not alot that goes on in the ctm. It's pretty much the same every day. The food is getting pretty bland and not any different then the last meal and at the ctm you are timed while doing email. So if I dont write you yet, I probably won't until I get out on to the Field. I love you all so very much. My family is soo very important to me. Mom if you could tell everyone that I love them and tell the Rennie's and the Young's that I will send a email to Elder Young and Elder Rennie soon. But tell them that I love them. Miss you guys soo much. Nate, Jess, I love you. I always think, Nate that your right there, and I can talk to you. Love you. Love you mom and dad.
