I got released as the Beehive Advisor last week. I had known for quite some time that a change was happening in the Young Women organization, but for some reason, I kept thinking it just would not affect me and my calling. WRONG!
Ever since I was teaching high school, I have wanted a calling in the young women's. I always wanted to be able to talk to these guys about the gospel...which I never was allowed to do at work.
I got called to the Beehives, which was foreign to me, cause I was used to the 14 to 18 year olds. It was the perfect place for me.
Beehives are so excited to be in young women's. They're new and so full of energy. They taught me so much!
I loved giggling with them, rapping with them, crying with them and talking to them.
When I got released, instead of feeling, yes this is the time, I felt so resistant. NO! I'm not done yet. Please don't take me out of there. It is the perfect place for me. I loved ALL of the girls. I loved working with the other women leaders and the friendships we built. I learned so much from each of them. I worry that those 2 short years are all I'll get working with young women. Will I ever get the opportunity again? I feel like maybe that was all I'll get just cause it's one that I love so much. Know what I mean?

Well, we can certainly empathize with each other, can't we? Enjoy nursery. That's my second favorite age to teach. ;)
I just got released as the nursery leader a few weeks ago and put into the young women. I know how you are feeling and feel the same way. You are going to LOVE the nursery!!
