Update

Ok, I know I said I would be better at posting. I just have been busy. :)

Life has been so good, and I know I am truly blessed. I have my calling and it is all I could have ever wanted and more. I am Young Women Secretary. They told me like a month ago but just put me in 2 weeks ago. It has been so much fun already. I love planning and organizing so it is perfect for me. It has been a blessing because I had a hard time in Y.W. when I was there as a teenager, so I feel like I am getting a second chance in a way.
Also :) I have been praying, to be able to go to the Temple, and have been thinking and hoping to be able to go this fall. I knew I wouldn't have been 100% active for a year yet, but just everything feels like that is what I am supposed to do. So I prayed for a couple weeks, and decided I will leave it in Heavenly Fathers hands. I met with the Bishop Tuesday, to see if I can go this fall, and what I need to do to get going on it. I honestly wasn't sure what he would tell me, cause my sister told me it would probably be a year, and same as everyone who I talked with, even my husband. But I figured I trust in the Lord, and I know he knows my needs and my heart better than I even do. I figured also that even if it takes a year I could start getting myself ready.
The Bishop told me he felt that I could go this summer after I take the Temple prep classes. I can't explain how wonderful that feeling is. My dreams are getting closer to becoming reality. These things felt so far out of reach, like it would take forever to get there. Now I can taste the sweetness of some of my hearts deepest desires. In the meantime I have a limited use. So I can go for curtain things, and will be going for me before the year is up.
Like I said truly blessed. I cannot wait to be there, and have my family there with me, the only better thing will be when I get to go with my Husband.
I will keep updates, as things come along :)
