Open Windows

I have recently become a firm believer that when the Lord closes one door.... a window opens somewhere. I have been in school for the last year or so for theatre and I got to a point where I was cast in a show. I was THRILLED. Something I have been working towards for a REALLY long time. But for many different reasons... I felt it was best that I withdraw from the show. I am not going to lie... this KILLED me. This show was my sanity and my escape from things. So, it was a really hard decision to make but I knew that it was the right decision. That door closed for me. And now here is where the window opened. Not a week later.... a dear friend of mine called me up and told me that they called her to be in charge of the Primary children for the ward musical. She said that she had been praying for help and my name IMMEDIATELY popped in her head. The Lord knew I needed SOMETHING in those regards to keep me sane. I was SO excited!

SO.... me and Tanya met often to go over details for putting together these songs and dances for the Primary kids in our Stake. We met twice a week to rehearse and in doing this... I had the chance to meet some AMAZING children and work with one of the most amazing woman I know. Me and Tanya became quite the team and we complimented eachother well.

I guess that it just made me realize that the Lord really is mindful of what we need in our lives... WHEN we need it. Not only did I need a creative release in an area that I have SUCH a passion for... but I also needed a friend. Someone who knew just what to say when I needed it. Who had my back and made me laugh when I really just wanted to scream. I am so grateful for wonderful people who listen to the Spirit and who have blessed my life in such a great way right now.

ok... Now that I have gone ON and ON.... I have some fun pics from the Musical. The kids performed three songs and dances to the Patriotic genre. The kids did SO good and it was SO fun to watch them get up there and have a blast. They all LOVED it SO much and I think that a small little seed WAS planted in each of them to love performing. Just like me. Maybe this is the path that I am suppose to take in life. Who knows!!! Me and Tanya.... an answer to my prayersI love that I was able to do this with my girls and that they loved it as much as I did :)
