My Lovely Young Women

OK so I haven't had a date in like forever, (well at least since Cam left which seems like forever) and two of my sweet young women Brittany and Sarah decided that I needed one desperately. They arranged the baby sitter and even brought me flowers (my favorite, Lily's. I don't know how they knew). Then we went to Monterey and rented a surrey and rode down the beach. Something I have wanted to do since we moved here. Again, I am not sure that they knew that either, they are just in tune with me I guess. At the end of our riding experience we had a yummy picnic on the beach and to top the evening off we went for manicures. It was so fun and so sweet of them.
To say that I have loved my calling at church working with the Young Women is an understatement. I truly don't even think of it as a calling, service or a sacrifice. It is a pleasure and something I have enjoyed so much and look forward to every Wednesday night and Sunday. I am going to miss them so much when I move.

Girl, I love the sling! And Grant does, too. Wish I had it when Keira was little (although, I've put her in this one recently, during a really needy day, and she does, in fact, fit).

I say, get two! Hey, is it a boy or girl? Do you guys know yet???
