Sunday was a BIG DAY!!

We finally made it back to church yesterday after taking a 2 week break since the kids had both had their fair share of sickness. The best part about going yesterday, is that we weren't even late to the very first meeting!! We had been walking in late to what felt like most every single Sunday. But with Clint's determination to get baptised he also wants to strive harder as a family to make it out the door on time without being considered late. We even sat closer to the front!:) Going hand in hand with going to church, brings about some other new news! Not only is my husband getting baptised THIS SATURDAY, but I GOT A CALLING!! Not going to lie, I have been waiting for this and wanting this so bad! I am a little apprehensive about this, as I am getting mixed reviews. The man, and heaven knows I won't remember his name, who gave me the calling made it sound pretty easy and I liked that! So I make my announcement about it on faebook and I get a comment from a friend stating that that can be a HUGE CALLING!! YIKES!! Now I am thinking, what the heck did I just sign up for?!?!? So, I sat down this morning and thought about it, and have come to the conclusion that there's a purpose for this, and I am going to take the calling, which I already accepted, and do the best that I can with it. And really, help for me is only a prayer away! Besides that anyway, I have my husbands support on this and so with that and the help of the Lord, i am going to be just fine!!:)

While the missionaries were here this past Saturday night, giving Clint a discussion, they invited us to go to a baptism at 6:30pm on Sunday. That way he would be able to see what happens at a baptism, as that is what he preparing for, and so we went! Although this was for an eight year old boy, it was still neat for Clint to be there for it.

Cadence was actually pretty cute yesterday too!! During Sacrament meeting I kept telling her to be sure to tell her teacher that her daddy is getting baptised this Saturday night. When her reply came to me as a no and a shake of her head, I felt saddened. I thought that it was big news that she would like to tell!! But every time that I told her, the reply came the same. So, I went to get her from her class, and her sweet teacher said that not only did Cadence want to announce this, she wanted to do it over the microphone in the Primary Room!! SO CUTE!! One other lady from the Primary said that it was so cute, she wanted to cry. I don't know what Cadence said, but I can only imagine this sweet little 4 year old child of mine and the excitement that she had and her sweet disposition reverently walking up to the front from way in the back where her class sits and announcing this on the microphone!!! What a doll!!

Also, there's Chazlyn!! Clint had taken her during sacrament Meeting to get a drink and upon returning to the cultural hall she books it for her classroom for nursery. Her teacher was in there, getting ready for the little ones to arrive, but what a great feeling and blessing my children are. She is FINALLY getting use to letting us go and not being so clingy!!! So yay for that!!!

Kids are great and are a HUGE BLESSING!!!!
