It has been like a week since I wrote in this blog, and some "livingstoncrew" fans have expressed there unhappiness with questions "when r you going to post a new blog". imagine that, people actually miss hearing from me and enjoy my pointless rants from time to time. LOL! Anyway, if a blog is what the fans want, who am i to dissapoint. :)
Today was Mothers Day. All I can say is i had one great day! I was spoiled in so many ways, and to see my kids so excited to give me a special day was priceless! And, in true "Amy" style i got emotional with the sweet presents my kids gave. Im a crier. Will cry at the smallest things, its who i am. :) There was breakfast made for me, dishes done for me, love, hugs and kisses. Brookelyn even asked me 4 times "what chore can i do for you mom"? All weekend she asked, and who am i to skip that one! LOL! Helpful tip, a 7 year old can vacumn upstairs and do a good job. ;)
Church was great to. Hence what I really want to talk about. I dunno if already being emotional today helped this along, but i felt so much gratitude today at church, and it really got me thinking. i really do love my ward, and those in it. "It's a funny thing how things can change". I have lived in this area for 8 yrs now. I have seen many come, and many go. But i can honestly say this is the first time in 8 yrs that i have actually felt really geniunely liked, and excepted in my ward. Comfortable to. I dont know if i grown up and come into myself and really let the true me come forth, just dont care anymore either way, or if my calling has helped this along. I just dont know. But I do know i am happy, and comfortable. I had s few people just today say to me "Amy, u r so awsome, im glad i know you". I kid you not, all today. I came home and expressed this to my husband, who in turned agreed with my new found comfortableness, and how happy he was for it. I love so many sisters in this ward. I have grown to love those i serve with in my calling. I can honestly say i am friends with those i serve with, and how lucky i am to be serving with those (EVERYONE OF YOU) people, and what examples you r to me. I dunno, maybe i am rambling, but i think it would be selfish of me not to recognize and ackknowlege this blessing in my life. Again, I dont know why the shift, but I am better cause of it, no matter what may of been the reason, yep, it's a funny how things can change. :)

You're such an Awesome person! I saw you in sacrament and was think how much I miss being your VT. We do have an great ward. And I'm glad you had such a nice Mother's Day. I have to thank you for you GNO 08 post. This year for Mother's Day my family is starting a new tradition and it's all because of you. We are going to start doing GNO every year around Mother's Day. Thanks for the idea and I will think of you while I'm having fun with my Mom and sister's.

It's not really that funny if you think about it. I told you that your life would change after you saw "Wicked" and it has!!!!! Just listen to your wise friends - they will help you guide your paths. :)
Hmm maybe it's because we left. =o)
I bet you're doing a great job in that calling. I miss our monthly walk & talks!
Happy Mother's Day,
