The Only Constant-

What is it they say?  The only constant is change?

Here at the Looney Bin- we are poster patients for this motto.

Today- just two months shy of 2 years, the DR was released from his calling as Second Counselor in our Ward Bishopric and called to serve as a member of the High Council.  He thought he might get a break until March-  but no- they are putting him right into the speaking rotation starting next Sunday.

His heart was a little battered when he got the call asking for him to meet with the Stake Presidency.  He has loved serving our ward for the past 4 plus years- first as the EQ president, and lately in the bishopric,  He loves serving with our bishop and the other members.  He has shed more than a few tears this week, and we both have today.  It is bittersweet- but right and the Lord's choice. 

I married an amazing man,  a wonderful person who loves people with his whole heart.  He isn't a perfect man, but he is a great person.  Those who know him in real life know this for sure.    He will do a great job- even though he is a nervous nelly about speaking, he has had lots of opportunities to teach in our ward the past few years.

I mentioned to the Stake President that we seem to be visiting with them about every two years, they asked if I wanted to schedule the next one now.  Um- no.
