News . . . Good or Bad?

Remember how much I love the Nursery?

The barefoot idyllic days, eating gold fish and cheese squares?? Singing and dancing to Wheels on the Bus? Acting out all the scripture stories and being adored by babies of all ages? Playdough snakes and bubble machines to your hearts content . . .

HOW I MISS THOSE DAYS!!

I was the Nursery Leader for one month.

I am now the Young Women's President.

No need to weep, I've already done that.

No wonder you loved the Nursery - you made it so much fun!! You'll do the same with Young Women and they will love you too. I can already see Emma and her friends singing and dancing, acting out scripture stores, blowing bubbles and going barefoot!!!!

Beka said...

How fun that you'll get to be with Emma. I would have loved you to be my YW President.

Callie said...

I weeped also- I wanted you in nursery. However, I know that you'll be an amazing YW president. If I was in YW- I would want you to be mine! You're fantastic!

What lucky YW you have!! I am the YW secretary and I have never loved a calling so much. Teenage girls are the most fun people to be around. And the worst...

I was SO bummed - you had already turned around nursery, Carter was loving it (not to mention not getting in trouble) and then you were gone. Sad! But, since teenage years are the armpit of life (thank you Sheri Dew for that phrase!), I conceed that they defintely need your magic more.

If you can't take care of my Gibbers, I'm so happy you'll be looking after Sophie (4 months until she's 12!)

LOL!!! I weeped to when I was released from nursery for two reasons, One, I didn't like it so I was ecstatic to be released and two, cole and I were called as a team to be wolf and bear leaders. Good Luck with the YW! I am sure you will be great, and they will LOVE you!!!

You will be the BEST in YW. You will love it in no time and will cry when they release you from that! They Need you! The girls will LOVE you!! What a lucky group of girls!

Andrea said...

I guess now is a bad time to gloat about my new calling, Librarian (Ha Ha). You will do great, and I bet you will even have fun.

Emma said...

Well, you dont have to sound so sad!! Your beautifull daughter is in YW (Finally!!)!!!!! Lucky you!!! Just kidding, I know how much you loved Nursery...... Maybe when you are old and gray you'll be the nursery leader for my kids!! Love you mom!

Krystal said...

You'll do great in YW, and you'll get to be with Emma...that's wonderful! Although I'm sure you loved nursery, I know you will be able to magnify any calling!

Natalie said...

You will be fantastic in YW. They are lucky, lucky girls to have you. They will love your energy, your great sense of humor, your fun, and your love for them and especially of the Lord.
I love you.

Jennie said...

I still remember my YW leaders, and some of the times we had, after like a million years!

How fun to have a daughter old enough to read blogs and be in Young Womens...i love that girl and she worked some magic on my kids tonight by getting them in bed by 8!
