I can’t believe that February is already over! Time is flying by way too quickly.

I was worried about getting to church on time today, because the lines I use to get there were closed down. Luckily I found an alternative route, and made it just in the knick of time. Church was pretty crazy today. Sacrament meeting went by pretty uneventful, but primary was chaos. The kids were pretty well behaved in the beginning, but as time went by they started to go crazy. My primary lesson was rather small today, only four kids, but they would not settle down. One boy would not stop hitting, kicking, and pushing the other children. I was teaching alone, so I couldn’t take him out of the class, but sitting him away from the other children was not working either. Insanity, I tell you! Sharing time was very rowdy and out of control. I was exhausted after primary, but couldn’t make my way home just yet, because I had agreed to meet with a guy after church to interview him for my religion class. I interviewed a man who was baptized into the church a little less than a year ago. Before being baptized he was an Atheist, and comes from a long line of Atheists. It’s a pretty extreme conversion. His story was very interesting. He told me about his difficulties with his family accepting his new faith, the challenges he still faces, and about what triggered his initial interest in the church. It was pretty fantastic hearing about his life.

Time needs to slow down, now!
