Yesterday when Bishop Udy called Mimi up to the podium and showed her certificate for her Faith in God Award, he said, "Mimi, can I share a little about our interview?" She nodded and he continued. He had asked her about how she felt about going on a mission (It's never too early to talk about missions). She said that she would like to go someday. Then he asked, "Where would you like to go?" thinking that she would respond with an exotic destination. She replied, "Where ever the Lord wants me to go."
The Bishop teared up and couldn't talk for a minute. He then said the interview was over. He couldn't say anything else. We were so pleased. Mimi looked radiant in her new white and pink dress that Sarah had sent her for her birthday, her hair combed back in two twists (help from Ishel).
Then the Bishop called Grandma up. She had earned her Young Women's Recognition Award. The Bishop awarded her the YW necklace and shook her hand. She is the 2nd leader in our ward to receive this award--Sister Anderson is the other one! Pretty neat day, only thing I forgot was the camera!
Later that night I took JJ over to the Buss' to pass off his LAST required merit badge for eagle: Camping! It was an all-star day! HOORAY, just an Eagle project to go!
