Well, my primary days are over, for now. I got called to be the Mia Maid advisor in the Young Women. I am super excited but a little nervous at the same time. The member of the bishopric that extended the call wouldn't stop talking about how serious this calling was. He talked about how pivotal this age is for the girls and how they lose a lot of girls at this age. No pressure right? I haven't gotten all the details yet but I am excited. I will be teaching most weeks which is fine with me. I actually enjoy teaching anything but Sunday School. It will be fun to get to the know the girls and hopefully be a good influence in their lives. I hope they like me.
They aren't quite sure what they are going to do with Dan. They will either leave him in the primary but get him another partner or release him and put him somewhere else. That remains to be seen. We have both actually really enjoyed teaching together. When else are we ever going to spend the entire 3 hours together? Probably never from here on out. It was great while it lasted. My primary class was sad that I wouldn't be their teacher anymore so that made me feel good. I was thinking they may have started cheering but thankfully they didn't. I'm sure that this is going to be a great calling where I will learn more then I teach. I am going to have to time feeding Sam just right so he doesn't scream when I'm suppose to be teaching. I usually feed him right before church but then it would make him hungry right in the middle of class. I'm sure we'll figure all of these details out. The girls really want me to bring him to class but I don't want him to be a distraction when I'm trying to teach. I'm kind of just rambling about all of the random thoughts I have so you can stop reading whenever you like. More updates will come in the future but for now, I am defanitely excited to be in the Young Women. I have wanted to be in the Young Women ever since I wasn't in the Young Women myself.

Such lucky girls! Good luck!
seriously, you are going to do so awesome! I had that calling back in my younger years, and I still totally miss it, it can be a lot of work, but the girls appreciate it way more than the primary kids (but then again, they may not be as easily entertained :)).. good luck!
I'm totally excited for you! You can be their Kim Taylor! I know you'll do great.
Not like you? Are you crazy? Did having Sam make you lose your mind? Everyone loves you and you will do AWESOME!!
And yes, pretty much count on not seeing Dan for awhile at church, soon Sam will want to be out in the foyer or you will be running to catch him! Oh.. good times
