I'm enjoying being with the girls. Ofcourse it has it's challenges. Sometimes I sit there and think, "Was I really like them as a teenager?" I have to develop patience and understanding.
But I'm loving being there with them. I can't help but think about my years in Young Woman. The impact that a good leader has on a young woman. For me that was Sister Gutierres, she was the Young Woman President when I was in the organisation. I can't help but say "Sister Gutierres use to do this or that" or "I remember when Sister Gutierres did this." I can't remember anything specifically that she said to me or thought me, but I just remember feeling so loved by her. So comfortable around her, I felt like I could come to her with anything. I trusted her completely. That's why I felt so safe coming to her during later years when I was going through hard times. And even now 'til this day I feel the same way about her. When I see her on Sundays I can't help but hug her and express to her my love and gratitude! I love her so much, and I hope that I can be what she is to me to the young woman.
