Being a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is one of the great joys in my life. But not everything about being a member is easy.
One thing that makes our church truly great, but that also can be very difficult, is the way the church is organized with callings. All callings are done by people volunteering their time. Usually, this works out wonderfully, but sometimes it can be hard, especially when strangers are asked to work together and be friends while providing service for others. Sometimes, people just don't "click" together, no matter how hard they try.
That is not the case with our presidency. All of us get along really well. It doesn't matter what meeting we are in together, we always have a good time.
Which, I think, comes from a mixture of different things. We're all in similar places in our lives and we all have similar goals. As for our callings, we all work really hard and really care about the children in the primary program.
I really feel like I've lucked out in my calling, especially because I have so much fun with it, and with the people I work with. And so, I am really and truly grateful to be a part of the primary presidency, with these people, in this ward, at this time in my life.

And you are forming bonds with these women that will most likely last forever. I find that's one of the sweetest blessings of callings.
I can't imagine you feeling any differently with whoever you are to work with. You are so easy to get along with and people love you wherever you go.
I love working in presidencies with other women. So glad you are enjoying this calling!
