I said yes?!!

I have been involved in MOPS for the last 3 years. This last year I served as a discussion group leader and was planning to do that again next year. Last week I got a call from a fellow MOPS leader who asked if I would consider being a co-leader of our MOPS group this fall (we still didn't have a leader but we have excellent mentors who have been stepping in and helping with the planning so far).

Well, after much prayer, talking to anyone who would listen (I tried calling Jenn but you were out), I said yes today. One of the big "sticking" points so to speak was that steering meetings are usually in the evenings & I was going to need a babysitter in order to attend. I actually found someone willing to come and watch the kids once a month so I can attend those meetings.

At this point I'm just praying that God will help me be what is needed for this position and that I will be an encourager for the rest of steering and for Cara, my co-leader. I'm really hoping that I will look back on this year and that this will be an unexpected blessing, that God will stretch me but that also He will help me be a good mom & homeschool teacher along with a good MOPS Co-coordinator.

And yes, this came up the day after I wrote my previous blog about wanting to find joy in my day to day life & really savor my kids. Hmmm...
