By the way...

Before I get started in my church we have what is known as stake presidents and they are the president who is change of all of the bishops in a certain area. Now that that is cleared up my dad just got called to the stake presidency and right now I feel overwhelmed and grateful.

Overwhelmed because, how in the heck are we going to do this? I know that threw the Lard we can accomplish all things but how? I feel that everyday our family is just barely getting by that as of right now we have the need for more time more money and more information more than ever. I am scared! But I know that not only will this change be a trial it will most defiantly be a blessing. My father will have the opportunity to bless and sanctify the people in the Brandon stake. Lucky for him he has a supportive family that loves the gospel as much as they love him.

Last night when we were told of this change, I had just gotten home from a 12 hour rehearsal and was in no mood to talk. Hannah and I had gotten home 5 minutes before my parents did. The first thing on my mind was a nice warm shower but as soon as I hopped in mom called through the door. “Before you take a shower come have family prayer.” Reluctantly I got out of the shower put on a robe and came into the family room. I looked at my mother-annoyed- she said dad had just gone to the restroom therefore delaying my shower even further. Mother asked if I had a bad day and I said I just wanted to take a shower. She said well we are just going to have prayer and a talk. Talk? Further postponement of my shower. Dad came in and mother and he exchanged a couple of words and then dad said he was just asked to be the 2^nd counselor in the stake presidency. My first reaction I think partly because I was so annoyed at first and now I was just hit with the biggest news ever! Dad then said he was going to wait and have us find out with the rest of the stake. I laughed again. That is like them planning to tell us mom was pregnant-which won’t happen because of moms recent surgery- while she was in the middle of labor. HAHA  So there it is dad is the 2^nd counselor in the stake presidency.
