Our Monday morning was taken up with a meeting with Sister Anderson and Sister Johnson about the letter to the Stake Presidents for the Choir Festival the Pres. wants to have. Sister Johnson is amazingly talented and experienced and Sister Anderson has held every music job in the stake and ward during her years in the church. So you can just see Scott and I setting there feeling like idiots!
The great thing is they would really like to just do the whole thing - I hope Pres. Anderson is ok with that because we certainly are!! It is amazing to see the strength and talent of women in the church.
Of course Scott's perspective from a man's viewpoint was a bit different coming from the intellectual thinking of a man vs. the emotional thinking of women. Life is so interesting......
When we got back after noon Elder Yturralde talked to Scott about going out to Quisquea.
Of course Scott thought his "little buddie" was too sick to drive out there by himself so he offered to drive him. So that gave me four or five hours to wash, make some chicken noodle soup and study Spanish. It took much longer than he thought so he missed most of the Spanish class he is supposed to teach at 5:00. Elder Haws teaches before him though so he just agreed to go on teaching until Scott got there. Well I was just picking the meat off the chicken bones when he called for me to come pick him up. At the Casa waiting for me were the Walkers, who Scott had invited to have soup with us, unbeknownest to me and Scott. Good thing the soup was done is all I can say. We really appreciate the Walkers - they are such good company. As a doctor, Elder Walker is on the warpath about ObamaCare and doesn't want to go home until Obama is gone. We hurried and ate and went back to the Casa for Family Home Evening.
Sister Hyde, from Kaysville, gave a presentation on an African service project that her son was involved in. The foundation had built a school there in a very poor area. It just made you want to help in some way. There are some amazing people in this world who give and give and give.
My favorite time of the day - bedtime!
