Great Friends

I wanted to tell all my friends thank you for all that you do for me. Lunch was great.
We need to do that more then just every three months. We need those laughs and it is cheaper then going to therapy. We have been through a lot together and I am glad to have you as my friends.

Weblos

I have a new calling I am the new weblos leader for the Santaquin 3rd ward. I am a little nervous about it the other leaders were so awesome and I have big shoes to fill. Stefany Crook is my assisant she does a great job. We had the Blue and Gold Banquet the boys did a really cute skit. We had a great time. I love the boys that are in my group. I can't wait until Tanner comes in. He will come into weblos in May.

Valentines Day

I love holidays. This year Valentines started on Friday for me. I made treat bags for my kids, and took them to there school and the office delivered the valentines to my kids. Gary took me to dinner and a movie. On Valentines we went to Jr jazz games and young men's basketball. We then took cookies around to family and kicked them at the doors. Then we came home and had a candle light dinner with the kids. They love it. We have them go around the table and tell each person one reason why they love them. The kids love this tradition we have been doing this for at least 12 years. One year I didn't do the dinner and we took the kids out to dinner they were so upset that the next night we had the dinner. Gary always gives me a hard time about valentines he says this holiday is for lovers not your kids. I just tell him it is a day to express your love to the people you love.

What a day

Well, I never seen it coming and was rather suprised me 3 weeks ago when the Bishop called me into his office and told me that they felt it was time for a release. At first I was mad thinking what have I done. Then I started to soften and think it was ok. You just hope who they call will love these girls as much as you have. This is going to be a huge adjustment in my life. I have been involved in YW for 12 years. This has been a big part of my life. I have felt like I am loosing 22 babies. The new president is going to be awesome. She will do an incredible job. so will her counslers.

Youth

I have been thinking about the youth latley and about the trials they have to face on a daily basis. A scripture came to mind D&C 10:5 "Pray always, that you may come off conqueror; yea, that you may conquer Satan, and that you may escape the hands of the servants of Satan that do uphold his work." Satan is out to destroy the youth of the church. If they would pray to him on a daily basis, learn to rely on him. He will help them through the tough trials of life. He will help them avoid the pitfalls. The youth of the ward are the futre leaders. We need to pray for them to remain strong.

Girlfriend

Well, Scott has his girlfriend over tonight to watch the Superbowl. I have had to leave the room a few times to laugh. It is really funny to watch him interact with her. I am not ready for this yet. I wish he would wait another 10 years. She seems like a really cute girl. I am just not ready for the seriousness of a girlfriend. I sure liked it when he dated around and not just having a steady girlfriend. We just pray for him constantly. He is a good kid he just is not thinking clearly. I think his head is a little fogged up. After meeting all of us she might just brake it off with him. Then we don't have to worry about him.
