I think I've had more callings in the Primary than any thing else in the church. Maybe I will get it right this time? I just got a new calling this week, finally. I was starting to wonder. David got his calling about 3 weeks ago. He's the EQ Secretary. The entire EQ Pres are lawyers going to the Naval Justice School...Yikes. He's feeling a little out of place, but he has a lot to add and bring to the other guys and the calling. So, I was just waiting...and Sunday, Bro. Raposa said they wanted to extend a calling to me to be a Primary worker. I said sure, I would love to. Diane hasn't decided where to work me yet, she's got the program to get done this next week, and then we'll see! I tried to remember all the things I've done in Primary...but there are many things left that I haven't done yet, too! I've been Sunbeam teacher, CTR 5/6 teacher, chorister, 2nd Couns., 1st Couns, and President. Anyway, I'm looking forward to another new challenge and adventure in Primary. Bro. Raposa and I were talking about when he was in Primary as the Sunbeam teacher and was a teacher to Michael and Erin and Riley, I guess. He said he just loved those kids. He asked me also when he was extending the calling if David's schedule was going to be like Jonathan, Jeremy, and Nathan's. I guess they might be hoping that I won't go berserk-o being in Primary with not-yet-in-nursery-Jackson and no hubby around to help out. I told him that I think David's schedule is probably the same, but I'm kind of used to it. He said he was amazed at Cindy and Briana coming to church, fulfilling their callings beautifully, and being such wonderful mom's. I have had people talk to me about how amazing the choir was that Holly was in charge of. I don't know how many people have said, we just love this family and those women. I am a little jealous that the Newport ward has been able to spend that time with you guys. At the end of our conversation, I told Bro. Raposa that if I could be half the woman that my sisters-in-law are, I would be happy! I mean that too girls...I would be honored to be put in any catagory with you...and you, too Mrs. Seminary Teacher Janus...I love you guys so much. Miss you, too.
