A Unexpected Call...

A few weeks ago I came home from work on a Monday night. Mark was in the computer room in a white shirt and tie. I was curious why he was dressed up. He said he needed to make a call in the ward. My thought was, "ok, but it is a Monday night?" I hung around in the computer room visiting with the family and then decided to take my work things into the bedroom and get ready for bed. Mark followed me and shut the door. Immediately I wondered what was up. He said, "I need to make a call in the ward." We both broke out laughing!!! I knew then I was the ward member to be called! I had NEVER received a calling in my bedroom, nor a kiss from the bishopric counselor after I accepted!!!

And yes, it was exactly what I 'd supposed: the 2nd counselor in the YW presidency. I'd been carrying the responsibilities w/the Beehives for 4 to 6 weeks up to that point because the counselor was newly engaged and quite preoccupied.

This was one memorable moment for the two of us!

Now I'm in the depths and breadth of 15 going on 19 incredible, beautiful Beehives. Another awesome blessing in my life!!!!
