It feels honest to me. I love the music and the feeling on oneness with the congregation as we all sing together to worship our Heavenly Father. I remember being in a stake confrence once like yours, I couldn't hear myself sing, so I sang even louder, and still couldn't. The power of the music was over whelming and brought tears to my eyes. I'm so excited for our upcoming confrence, my first here in Ohio… I hope they like to sing here too!

BTW, to answer your question, we moved in about 4 months ago, so I've had a little time to unpack now. I am teaching preschool! We are starting this Monday with 5 students (a friend and I are teaching together). Wish us luck!

But I am still Mormon.

8 hours for Stake Conference. And I was complaining that I had to go to the other building due to overflow for a broadcast.

I love living here where my family is but there is something so much more fullfilling about living out in the 'mission field'. I'm glad you made the sacrifice to attend Stake Conference. It's 5 minutes away for me and I NEVER go- I always think of that Sunday as a sort of 'get out of jail free' card. No way I'm sitting through that with the kids. That's just one of many reasons we're B-list Mormons .

We just had out primary program and kept reminding the kids to sing with GUSTO! Because they did, the spirit was so strong and I looked out at the audience and wondered why their parents don't sing like that…

Thank you for this post. I've certainly had the "it's really just too hard to this" mentality about things before. I love it when it pays off in the end and we feel so much better about ourselves for having made the sacrifice.

Lovely words, Lara. 🙂
