Well it's official, I am not going to church today.  I hate to miss, but I feel miserable.  James attends our wards sacrament meeting then goes on over to Show Low to attend the ward there that he works with.
We had prayer together before he left.  I stay home and rest and study.

I studied Elder Tad R. Callister's conference address.  In his talk he gives some suggestions on things that youth leaders should teach the youth.  They are: 1. Teach them how to prepare an agenda.  2. Teach them how to conduct meetings with dignity and warmth.  3. Teach them how to rescue the one.  4. Teach them how to prepare and give an inspired lesson.  5. Teach them how to receive revelation.  Such good ideas!

When James got home we broke our fast and he fixed lunch for us, including chocolate covered strawberries.  He cleaned up and then he washed off my car and watered the plants. 

Later this evening I went with him while he delivered youth conference information to Madalen Carroll, Trenda Wilhelm, Mary Swift, and Jordyn and Shelly Applegate.  What would I do without this guy? 

We came home and I read to him from The Grecian Princess.  It seems like a small price to pay for all that he does for me.  Sunday evenings are always a little bittersweet because we know he will be leaving in the morning for the valley.
