Primary

I know this picture is not very exciting at all but this has been my life for the past 5 months I feel like. And today I finally changed out the broken white boring binder for a more pretty one. I know this is the least important thing serving as the primary president but it sure makes it more fun to lug around to all my mtgs. The future primary president will thank me when I hand it over to her. So last April our ward was splitting. The primary president was moving into a different area entirely having nothing to do with our split. I knew this for about 3 months. Thought nothing of it. Then when the split was announced I knew the entire primary presidency was being put into the other ward. Still thought nothing of it. I had just been put in miamaids two months earlier and the bishop's wife told me he was so happy that all of the young women leaders would still be in our ward. No changes there. And I was thrilled because I love serving in young women's. It's where I have spent most of my married time serving. So when the executive secretary called and said the Bishop needed to meet with both Weston and I, I was sure it was a new calling for Weston and I was excited for him. We couldn't meet with him when he wanted and then it was spring break and he was out of town. So a couple of weeks went by and we still didn't have a time to meet with him. I thought well it's probably no big deal then. When we did finally meet with the Bishop he was talking mostly to me I felt like. He had me read a couple of scriptures and asked how I liked change. I told him I didn't and I really loved my current calling so I'm good. Smiling, he then asked me to serve as the primary president. I was completely shocked and Weston laughed relieved he wasn't getting a new calling. It has definitely been a huge learning experience. One that I am grateful for because the Lord knew I need to grow a lot I guess. I was terrified and still am all the time because I am definitely not a leader and I knew that going into this calling. I haven't imporoved in that area yet but I do love the kids. That's an understatement. The highlight of my week is the little while I get to spend with them. So I am very grateful I have been able to serve in this calling for the time.
