Kinda, sorta better

I feel a little bit better today after my Sunday meetings than I did last week. Some solutions were presented in Ward Council and now it's up to the president of another organization to work some things out within his own group to try and free up individuals. It's an idea I've been throwing around for a long time. So, we'll see if it happens.

I did get a little mad at the teacher I was the most mad at last week. She decided to come up to me and apologize for being so "flaky lately". If by "flaky" she meant only being there around 25% of the time, 50% if we're lucky, and if by "lately" she meant since March 2007, I'd like to know what she would consider being active. She was very flippant about it and I could tell that she really wanted me to just brush it off and be ok with it. You know, just tell her everything was fine and not to worry about it. I didn't do any of that. I know she could tell I was NOT happy. However, there was someone else standing there at the time, so I didn't get the chance to tell her the things that really needed to be said. The things that I can and have the right to say being the Primary President. She will hear it soon.

Tyler and Cameron both gave talks today in opening exercises. Avery read the scripture. I wrote the talks for them. They approved them and then read them on their own. Yes, Cameron read his on his own. He only had a little trouble with a couple of words and he looked down at the paper the whole time, not speaking into the mic, but he did great. He's reading at around a third grade level and he's only starting 1st grade in the fall. Crazy. I've always said that I would probably have children who would be evil geniuses and would pass me up in the intelligence department.

Tyler is going to be speaking in Sacrament meeting on Father's Day. He's very excited. He was asked last week and as soon as he got home from church, he started working on it. We have a draft in progress. We'll work on it in the next couple of days and get everything finalized. I can't believe I have a son who is old enough to be speaking on his own in Sacrament meeting. Does that mean that I'm getting old?

I am glad that things went better yesterday. You were almost fully staffed--minus Tina and the older boys but you were batting 1,000 compared to last week! I really do hope that you say something to that teacher. Maybe she will fess up that she has some kind of problem like everyone suspects.

Zacha is also speaking in Sacrament Meeting this week. The only thing--Matt has to work. I don't know what he's doing about that but my parents are coming. He is really excited to speak too. I know how you feel--I can't beleive these 2 boys are old enough to speak by themselves!!
