So, this morning I got a call from a member of our bishopric for Mario and I to meet with him. Never a good sign. At first I thought maybe Mario was being released as Elder's Quorum President and was excited until he reminded me that it is a Stake calling. Then I knew it was for me. I was shocked when I was asked to be CUB SCOUT LEADER! Can't say I expected that one. I was released from my 4 year long calling as Relief Society Secretary. Since this morning I have been so sad to leave Relief Society. I was working with the most fantastic women and I will miss it. After the sadness subsided the panic set in. Me? In Scouts?! With 8 year old boys?! I know nothing, zip, zilch, nada about the Boy Scout program. I don't camp, I'm not a pro knot tyer, I have no clue how to sew patches on shirts. But the Lord has asked me to serve and I will do it. I think it will be fun and a huge learning experience. If anything it will teach me how to pray and rely on the Lord.

(wait, that was me, kirsten! i don't know what happened to my name up there)
poor Linda, you have so much to offer those boys. You will do a fantastic job. Considering you have three of your own you may be there for a while.
Your in it for the long haul now. Look at the bright side, you get to wear one of the yellow women's leader shirts! haha. Scouting is awesome!
I totally understand. Scouting has been like a whole new world. At least now, I am understanding it and will be better prepared for Ben and Zach. You will do great at it!
