The splits

Today our ward got split.  It wasn't too much of a surprise.  It was just a matter of when.  They had been expecting it to happen for a couple of years now and when we moved in with 30+ other families it was definitely time. 

It is bitter sweet.  I am going to miss all these new friends that I just made.  I know we will still be friends but it isn't the same.  Man oh man.  I shed a few tears today.  Our little house happens to be right on the boundary for two wards and a totally different stake.  We are living on the edge so to speak. 

I am so excited for the growth here in Alabama, the Lord is preparing our little area.  In the next little bit we are getting a huge amount of missionaries (double I think).  I'm so glad to know that the Lord knows me, he knows where I live (right on the boundary lines), he knows my neighbors and he knows my heart. It is so wonderful.  Exciting times!
