Many exciting changes/events have taken place this past month. May was a very good month. I will post a few of the highlights in separate posts in chronological order. First of all, on Easter in April I was released from my calling as first counselor in the Primary presidency. We had served for almost 4 years and I really loved everything about the position. I loved the children; I loved teaching sharing time; I loved getting to know the teachers; I even enjoyed helping to write the sacrament program each year. :)
It was a sad day when I was released but I was surprised that I recovered quickly - not like when I was released from being the Laurel advisor almost exactly 6 years ago. I mourned that calling for over a year.
I spent over a month calling-less, which is unusual in our smaller ward and after teaching indexing in Relief Society one week I was worried about being called as family history representative.
In the middle of May I was called to meet with the bishop who extended a new calling to me - Young Women President. President??? Are you sure??? I'm the fun one, advisor-ish, not in charge-ish! Of course I accepted hoping that with the help of my Heavenly Father I can fulfil and magnify this calling. I love the Young Women and am SO excited to be back with them. I have a lot to learn, but loving the girls comes naturally. I have some great women to work with also, and I think this will be a labor of love.
