On Tues. I got a call from the Executive Secretary of our ward. He asked me if I could come in for a minute to talk to the Bishop. I said sure. I drove to the church thinking it was no big deal, after all, he didn't even ask for my husband to come with me.
As soon as I walked in the building, however, I knew I was in trouble- the whole Bishopric was there and they asked me where my husband was. He was there at scouts, so they went to grab him and then proceeded to ask me to serve as the Relief Society President. I was very horrified. I DO NOT feel ready, but I guess Heavenly Father has different ideas for me. Of course I accepted and they sustained my counselors and I today. I almost threw up. I am VERY overwhelmed!
On a lighter side I found this on the internet and couldn't resist putting it on here as an illustration of a woman called to serve as RS President. I'll do a before and after photo of me and see how true it turns out to be...

LOL...so glad you put that Barbie pic in there. I'm so excited for you! So many changes in the ward! I was SUPER surprised with my new calling as well. I'm so excited, but kind of sad I won't be going to relief society to hear any of your lessons or anything. I'll think you'll do great! Let me know if there is ever anything I can do to help you!
