Some time ago, our good friends (more brothers than friends, really) were asking me to explain when to use "por" in spanish and when to use "para". In english, we only have one word, "for" when we want to say, "the gift is for him" , or "I bought this for $10", or "I slept for 8 hours"... in english, the word, "for" can mean many different things or have many different applications. In spanish, there are two words that apply in different situations.
Well Devin and Colby (and I am sure there are others out there who would like to have this cleared up), here is your answer. See below for the 3-page exlanation!

¡Que buena explicación! ¡Vamos a imprimirlo para Joel! ¿Cúal es el email de Lidia? Necesito hacerle alugnas preguntas acerca de la limpieza del piso, especialmente el de madera. Nunca he tenido piso de madera. ¡Pásenla super bien! Bendiciones!
You took a picture being worth a thousand words to the next level. And, your handwriting looks a lot likes Alex's. :) Keep up the good work, Matt. We miss you guys!
