It's been a bitter-sweet feeling to know that that chapter has closed. Mostly because it's been nice to watch Mads and Korb gain a testimony of their own. I'm lucky to have had that opportunity.
My girlfriends...April, Ammo, Amanda and I have become really close friends while serving together in the Presidency. We were friends before but have become even better friends thru serving together. Reflecting and looking back it just amazes me how much I've learned about myself and them. Such talented women! We definitely had have some challenges thrown our way a few times, have laughed a lot, have had many 'late' night meetings (by late I mean arriving home after midnight, mostly because we would visit for more than half of our time), have had dinner/birthday/brunch/just because dates, have shared testimonies, have gone on dessert-runs, have shared sharing times, have cried!, have attended all sorts of trainings, have received compliments, have pulled wallpaper together, have attended baptisms together, have been a part of making memories in Primary, have watched our own children grow in Primary and with all 4 of our cell phones have accumulated thousands of minutes talking to each other! I love my 'Primary' girlfriends! Even though we have been released, we have already kicked off a new tradition of dinner every 3 months!
I have a new calling already and it has been such a testimony builder because of three good friends. I'm thankful for them. One for being such a good example of what I want to be as I fulfill my new calling and two for being in tune with the spirit and listening. I have some big shoes to fill and hope I can continue to teach the values the girls in Young Women need. I'm nervous, excited, surprised, humbled and ready to begin a new chapter. Korbin will be in YM in a few weeks and Mads will come into Beehives with me in 2 years. By then I should know what I'm doing right!?!
