Ooooops!

Last week, Kaylee popped into the car after Seminary with a question. Would I be willing to teach Seminary on Tuesday while the teacher was in a meeting? When we signed her up for the class the teacher jokingly wrangled my husband and I into volunteering to teach; however, he did not expect us to say yes. I told her to let her teacher know I was willing.

I would love to share all these wonderful insights from the experience but, quite frankly, I failed miserably. Maybe because I allowed time to rush by me and read over the lesson at the last minute. Maybe because I did not get enough sleep. I rarely do. Maybe because the teacher's meeting got canceled, he sat in the class and I allowed myself to get nervous. Who knows? I do know that education is my dream, teaching is my love. Although I puttered along during this attempt and I am working with my already pummeled heart to keep my head up, I am going to keep working at it. And maybe I will find that if [I advance somewhat] confidently in the direction of [my] dreams, and [endeavor] to live the life which [I] ... imagined, [I] will meet with a success unexpected in common hours. Hopefully, sooner than later.
