New Calling!!!

So, I've been in primary since we've moved into our ward here in Virginia Beach. First, as the CTR 8 teacher, then as the 1st councilor in the presidency. I loved being in primary. We have great kids in our ward and I got to work with some amazing women. A few weeks ago the Young Women presidency was released. I didn't really think that I might be called into the new presidency. After all, I've only been in the primary presidency since August. Then, a couple weeks ago, Joe and I were walking into sacrament and Bishop was at the door and asked to speak to both of us. I didn't really know why he wanted to speak to both of us. He pulled us in some random room. I started to get nervous. He said that he actually really wanted to talk to me. I immediately knew he was going to call me into the Young Womens presidency. He asked me to be the 1st councilor. I immediately started to cry. Bishop and Joe just stared at me. I felt so embarrassed. Bishop asked if I was okay. I just said (in crying voice), "I just really love my calling!" I of course said yes to the calling. I explained to him that I wasn't crying because I was going to be in Young Womens, I was just sad that I wasn't going to be in Primary anymore.

As many people know, I'm not really good with change. I know being in Young Womens will be great. I'm really excited, yet soooooo nervous. It's been 9 years since I've been in Young Womens. Being in this calling will allow me to spend more time with Joe at church because he's in Young Mens. This will be good for me... right?
