"Whatever our calling, regardless of our fears or anxieties, let us pray and then go and do!"

About 2 months ago I was called in to teach the Valiant 9 class in my wards primary. I thought easy, no sweat. They are young, and will hang on every word. Which is mostly true, however I have learned so much from these sweet kids. One of the most important lessons I have learned is patience. I remember talking to Nick after being called, my only worries were patience, and my anxiety. I got called in to be set apart for this new adventure and the first words of his blessing were "Sister Weight, we bless you with the courage and patience to teach the Lords children" I was absolutely breathless. I knew I needed this, but how did Brother Fil know? It was incredible. Then Nick got set apart as the Sunday School Secretary, in his blessing they told him to love and cherish his wife. So needless to say almost every day since than I tell him to get me a drink or a snack or something and end with "Bishop says to cherish me so you better do it or im telling" Yes im a 5 year old at heart. dont hate. It doesn't work anymore anyway :)

Life is pretty much the same around here. I work full time. Nick works full time and goes to school whenever he's not at work. I miss him. haha.

We are remodeling our kitchen now that the basement is finished. First thing to go? The nasty linoleum. Nicks Dad and Jake have been such troopers helping with EVERYTHING. And I am so proud of my cute hubby for all of his hard work and willingness to learn. We have most of the cement board down now, just a few more pieces than we get to lay out the tile. I love that our house is slowly becoming a home.

We have been going to the temple alot more lately. And it has made me realize how blessed I am. I am sealed to my best friend and the love of my life FOREVER. I cant even imagine life without him. He is my rock. And I cant wait to start a family with him, and grow old and gray together. ♥
