I know something is really retarded with my blogs. It's probably just me. I don't know! The other blog doesn't work either! I'll just have to paint a picture for you since there are none to be found on my blog!
We've been here for over 2 months now! I like it here a lot! But, I also like to be busy. So, being called to be Primary President of our new ward that split about a month ago is a fun challenge. Talk about being thrown into the mix. I can't complain that I'm not getting to know people right away! I also can't complain that I'm bored. There are 100 kids and 50 in Nursery. After calling every single teacher and leader, we also threw together a Primary Sacrament Program that was on Sunday. I'm beginning to relax now but of course wanting a project. I'm looking at my home wanting to create a masterpiece of design for every inch! Patience never has been much of a strength for me- so waiting for the money to pour in, so I can accomplish all my plans is tough, but I'll live. Elder Wirthlin said "Come what may and love it". I'll try!
I asked the kids tonight at dinner to name one time they felt the spirit today. I was pretty surprised at how quickly they were able to come up with the special moments of the day. And also- the sweet acts of kindness that they did for others that helped create that happy feeling! (Shoot- being self absorbed doesn't create happiness.) I feel like I learn so much from them! How did I end up the mother of these kids? Seriously so blessed :) I would insert a picture right here that shows all 4 of the older kids sleeping in the same bunkbed together! We bought a 5 bedroom house and they want to sleep on the same bed!? Such cuteness.

Wow! I guess you are a little busy! I got through into a primary presidency of a newly split ward and that is a lot of work and i wasn't even the pres! How is the preschool going? This is the first year in years that I have not being doing one at home! I'm sure it is going great because you always did fun things with our kids!
Hey! It is so good to hear updates of the family and how they are doing. I was excited to hear you got Primary Pres again! I hope you can handle it well, I wish you would send about 20 of those kids our way to Great Bend so we can have a better primary! You might suggest that :D Great Bend is doing well, a lot of changes but all is well for sure! I am kept busy as they piled another calling on me so that takes me tally to 3 and part of 2 others so I am kept very busy as well! Tell the family I love them and miss them a lot!
How fun that they love each other so much. I would have loved to be a fly on the wall at that dinner time. You would be the best Primary President, but wowsers, to be thrown in so quickly and have to do an impromtu Primary Program! You are the woman!
Those kids are so lucky to have you! And putting together the primary program too! I'm sure you are incredible productive with your time to make it all work. You inspire me!
