Time for Change

I knew before I left on my vacation that I would be getting a new calling. I knew I'd be released from the Primary, but I don't really think that made it any easier to go back today. Of course, as I said good bye to the kids and asked them to be sure to at least wave to me in the halls, I cried (because that's what I do). I did have to smile as one of the kid's mom came up to me after church and said he had asked her "Was Sister Ottley alright in Relief Society?" Yes, by the time I got to Relief Society I was alright and the tears had stopped. But that really did make me feel good.

They didn't keep me at rest for long. They also called me to a new calling when they told me I was being released and today I got called to be the ward choir director. I've pretty much participated in every ward's choir that I've lived in, but this is the first time I'll be in charge. It's really going to be fun looking at the music - that could be a bit dangerous.
