The last few months have been so crazy with Young Women's and it can be so overwhelming that a good cry is sometimes the only comfort!<BR/>I love to see all of your DC excursions.

I really needed a few more lunches out at that time, but it seems everyone forgets about you by then. Luckily, I had a few inspired people bring me some dinners and that made my bawl in front of them.

There are many times as the bishop's wife that I will counsel with my dear husband and let him know that some sister in our ward needs to be reminded of that principle before she has a nervous breakdown.
