Good Bye Beloved Calling

I have been in the Young Women's Program basically since we got to this ward in some way or another. And I love serving the YW and the program is a beautiful program truly inspired. But Today I had to asked to be released. It saddens me, but I know that it was right. This has been coming for weeks. I stopped going the last few weeks to see if it would make a difference, I have fasted and prayed, and I just know that this is the right thing. We got a new Presidency awhile back. And I was the Personal Progress advisor. I think this was my favorite calling I ever had in the Young Women's because that is the best program for our current youth. But the president, maybe the presidency I am not sure, started to slowly take away my program. And the last three months they have not had it at all. I feel sorry for those girls, they really need that program. But the YW pres was stressing me out, and depressing me beyond what I would like in my life. This woman may as well just call it her program. She has done away with so much of the actual program (like combine YW/YM meetings), and does everything according to her will and whim. She makes up her own rules to the program, and to the gospel, and the handbook (she makes up her own). The YW seem to really like the life of no rules that she has implemented, but what YW wouldn't like to do away with the rules.

Other than that life is the same old same old. Some new developments: I have broken Isaac of the bottle. YEAH!!!! It took awhile, since he was so attached to it, but he has not had one since Tuesday. So this is a good sign. He is a weird kid though, and has refused to take naps in his crib since vacay, so we have been accommodating his hatred of his bed during naps by letting him sleep other places, the couch, the floor, my bed and basically any place I could get him to nap. Not the best thing I know, but whats a Mom to do. Well I recently have to decided to get back to BABYWISE basics and get him doing what I want, not what he wants. This has not gone over well. *note to parents and moms, don't wait in doing this, delay will only cause YOU further pain.* Isaac is protesting at every level. he screams for 65+ mins before sleeping 25 mins. If I let him sleep somewhere else he will sleep for 1.5-2 hrs twice a day. But napping in his crib is truly traumatic for him and I can seem to only bare so much screaming. Tomorrow I am going to change his crib to a toddler bed, to see if the change of scenery will change his will. I will let you all know how this is taken by definant said pre-toddler. As for BABYWISE I love it. Parenting method prefered by me, and recomended by me. I'll let you knowabout the sleep thing and how he is progres with that.
