Change

For those of you that know me well, know that I H.A.T.E CHANGE.  There I said it! Change is always very hard for me and I just don't like it one bit.  After serving in the Young Women's for 3 1/2 years this Sunday they are going to say my name and release me! I remember when I got the calling and was super nervous to teach, go to meetings, be in charge of Tuesday night activities, etc.  But this is something that I have grown to love.  I love my Young Women...and I am pretty sure they love me to. At least I hope they do.  But how do I stop the clock? How do I tell the Bishop I need this calling still and I am just not done? I don't.  The time I guess has come and a change is headed my way.  YIKES!!! I am one that likes to be in charge, likes to know whats going on, and how its going to get done- and this is out of my control. I will forever cherish the time I spent with the YW and the fond memories and bonds that I have with them.  I think Heavenly Father knew that I needed this calling at this time in my life, it was EXACTLY where I was supposed to be!

I actually just got released on Sunday from YW (only a year and a half though). I have cried several times over it. It is hard. I know you were AWESOME at it - and you will have more chances I am sure to serve in YW. You are the type of personality that will greatly impact young women and the Lord knows that. Good luck with your new calling - mine is way out in left field and I am nervous - cub scout master... 8-11 year old boys...yikes!
