Church Callings-

My Mother in law went visiting teaching to the Primary president's house today and during the course of the conversation she asked Lois if I wanted a calling. Get this- She wanted to put me in as the Nursery Leader as our current Nursery Leader is about to have a baby. This is so wrong, on so many levels!
Yes, I could be the Nursery Leader, however consider the fact that my two children are usually the only ones in there. It is the one day a week for two hours that I get a break from otherwise being the Mom and the Dad 24-7 while Paul is away. This is my very little bit of sanity. Consider that this is really the first time in 3 years that I have been able to go to Sunday School and R.S. since we had Daniel. She of course doesn't realize that, and I don't blame her. But Paul has been gone or for one reason or another (deployments, drill, jobs, teaching Priesthood) and not been able to take the kids so that I could go to class. Next, we only have 2 1/2 months left (HURRAY!!!!) It seems kind of pointless for me to be put in there for just that long. Hopefully Lois said enough so that it ends there. If not I will not feel bad about saying no. People need to take into consideration the situation of the person for callings.
