I hate change!
Really I do. Thursday night the 2nd counselor in our bishopric came over and released me from the Young Women's. I was sad! I knew that it was probably coming but I didn't want it to. I think Brandon could hardly contain his elation that I was being released and no more sunday meetings, or wednesday night activities. There were many times I really thought he was going to ask the Bishop to release me because some months, let's face it, were hard to do it all, and really I didn't do that much to begin with. I was able to work with some amazing women and get to know some even more amazing young women. I was able to witness modern day revelation as the value Virtue was introduced into the Young Women program. I saw girls grow from beehive to mia maid, (and really that is a huge change:).
And I had fun.
After I was realeased I was then called to be a primary worker. Everything in me wanted to scream, "NO!" as I shook my head yes to the calling. With every calling that I have had I've learned that the calling is for my benefit more than those whom I serve. I know I'll learn to love primary,
it's just the change that I really hate.

I'm sure you will miss YW! I love it! And they will sure miss you. But it certainly is busy! Today I had meetings before and after church and have been working on YWs ever since... I can see how Brandon would be so excited! It truly is amazing to see the YW grow. And virtue!? Why wasn't it in there before?!
I love all the pictures of your cute family in previous posts!
Ha! I saw you yesterday and you were all smiles. I thought more than once what a good example you were to take the new calling and be happy about it. Whether you like change or not, you are pretty fantastic and you certainly had me fooled. :)
Just the thought of being a primary teacher makes me want to pull my hair out. Thanks for having a better attitude about it than I would. You are a good example. I'll pray for this change to go smooth for you. Love you!
I'm sure your YW will miss you just as much, and you will love primary:) You're so cute, and I agree that change is hard (unless we really want the change, like moving into a new house or something:)
Kim, I've been serving in the primary for nearly the past 6 years straight (I've had a couple of 6 month breaks, but that is it) and I'll tell you, I'm finally loving my calling (it took being in the Presidency to really appreciate what the teachers do). But I can see why it would be hard to go from YW into primary. Good luck and just love those kids and you will learn to love it.
