For about a month after Macey started kindergarten I was mentally writing a blog post about how I was struggling to find a good balance in my life. I felt like either my house was clean and I was cooking dinner for my family or I was exercising and eating healthy and my house was a mess! I couldn't seem to find a middle ground where all of the things I feel like are important were getting done and I was ready to send it out in the blog world for your comments and ideas. Well, about three weeks ago I got thrown a curveball that made my quest for balance seem totally unattainable...I got called as Relief Society President! What?! I keep thinking that I am not old enough to be Relief Society President, especially in a ward mostly full of people my parents ages :) Underneath my overwhelmed fear, I do have glimpses of feeling like this is the right calling for me right now. I am amazed at the strength of testimony I gained of Relief Society as I was serving in the previous presidency and the love I have developed for the sisters in our ward. I have already felt the Lord's hand and help as I try my best to serve and I am so grateful for that. I know that I couldn't do it by myself.
So now I am trying to find a new balance between fear and faith, along with exercise and a clean house and spending quality time with my hubby and kids all of those other things I have to (or want to) do each day...Yikes!!
