My New Life

Well...
I thought life was busy. I thought "at least I have Sunday's with my husband". I thought I was handling things pretty well. But we were surprised with Andy's new calling in our ward. He is now the Executive Secretary. The Bishop thanked me in advance for sacrificing my husband. And it does feel like a sacrifice. Andy will now be at the church most ALL day Sunday. Plus extra time during the week.
First reaction. What about me!
Talk about selfish. I have now come to grips with it. I will accept it. I will expect blessings from the Lord. "Sacrifice brings forth the blessings of heaven." That was a lesson I learned as a missionary.
I have realized that this period of my life, feeling like a single mom, is a growing period for me too, just as it is for Andy. It will be good for me.
I'm excited for Andy. He has never served in a position like this. He is nervous. But i know he will do great! He will learn quickly. And he will help in doing the Lord's work. He is a good man.
