Last Friday we met Leticia from the MTC.  She is our tutor for Spanish and is great!  Tutoring for me is from the beginning and fine-tuning for Van.  Wow!  I am overwhelmed.  We were already past what I remembered from high school and college after the first hour-long session.    We received some great books from the MTC:  501 Spanish Verbs and The Ultimate Spanish Review and Practice.  We also received other books with diaglog for missionaries and temple tasks. Learning a language was much easier in high school and college.  Van is helping me with homework.  We are reading scriptures and praying in Spanish.
With the Lord's help anything is possible.
