Rob got released on Sunday from being Young Men's President and to be really honest, I'm sad. This was definitely not the reaction I was expecting from myself! I thought I would be jumping up and down screaming for joy at having my hubby back but when Rob told me he was released, I cried. Now don't get me wrong.. once I realized that he would no longer be gone half of Sundays at meetings and would be around Wednesday nights I got excited but I'll miss that calling. I'll miss the boys. Rob misses them too. He loves those boys so much it's really hard for him to be done.
I'm very grateful for the blessings we have received the last few years. There are blessings and experiences that we have had that I know we would not have had the opportunity to receive if it weren't for Rob's service. I'm gonna miss the extra blessings :)
My testimony of service in church callings and the blessings that come from that service has grown significantly the past few years. I love having a calling! I love going to church each week with a "job" to do. It makes church so much more meaningful to me knowing that I am contributing to my ward each week. {I didn't quite have these same feelings when I was teaching the 5 year olds a few years back ;) } I love my current calling! I love the sisters of my ward. They are so wonderful and they inspire me to be a better person.
So it's kinda weird. A chapter of our life is over. It's actually funny timing because now with Rob done with all the studying for the LSAT and all our holiday traveling over and done with and now with him being released he's around so much! I don't know what to do with the guy!
I'm sure me and Boston can figure something out :)
