A look back...

Its my birthday month so I figure... I always seem to reflect on the past year and how much life has changed in just a matter of 12 months!!! Oh boy has it, I guess its true that time flies when you are having such fun! I always want to feel grateful for my countless and continuous blessings and I am so humbled to know that I have so many each day of my life... I hope to be worthy of these blessings in the eternities. The Gospel in my life has always been a highlight and most of all my callings in the church have been the driving force to strengthen my testimony. I recently was released from being a Sunday school teacher for the kids ages 12-14, I realized that I had been there a long time because I was so comfortable. That is when I know the Lord needs to push me out of my comfort zone and I could feel it coming for sometime. So I received a call from our Ward secretary, Bro Oddou... i love this guy. So sarcastic and funny... I dont know whether to look forward to his calls or screen them!!! lol! 
I was to meet with a member of the bishopric mid-week... at first, I thought... Uh oh, what callings are open in our ward???? oh that was a scary thought... but then after Tyson told me that they were releasing me from my calling, I was going to miss my kids but then I realized that I would have a break... maybe the Lord wanted me to be in nursery with my son to make sure he doesnt accidentally throw the toys at all the kids... yes, ACCIDENTALLY! =)


To my complete shock, I received a new calling..... wait for it.... I am the Chorister in Primary!!!! shocked? yes, I know... me too!!!! I asked Tys if I was being punked and of course he said no, and asked if I would except the calling... of course to my hesitant reply, I said that I would and I would TRY! My dad always used to remind me that when the LORD calls, you say YES WILLINGLY and get ready to go forth and serve! I did however ask Tyson to ask the bishopric to pray again because they might have been tired that day and miss construed the name by accident. lol! 
He still thinks its hilarious! Come on Tys... cut a girl some slack!


I love my calling so far, I realized quickly that I needed to brush up on my primary songs because my Noahboi knows all of them and of course more than I do!!! I often wish that my sister was still the primary president in our ward but she is doing BIG THANGS for the YW in INDEPMO. So maybe one day sister, we will be able to serve together in the same ward. I am so hoping for that. 


Oh how I rejoice in the Gospel and to know of its Truth and Power. The amazing miracle to move mountains and to build HIS kingdom here on earth in the latter days. I pray for my warrior of a son, that he will know every blessing that the LORD will, can and has provided for him... and to know the Lord and His Son personally and testify of their undeniable love and faith in him, as he tries to be like them on a daily basis. 
Every year, everyday and every moment is a small step closer to my Heavenly Father and I pray that everyday that I will be better than I was yesterday. 
I wish that blessing for my birthday and always...

Oh and him too of course... bahahahahaha!
Come on guys... its always my birthday wish!!!!
