Worst phone call of my life this far...

Okay so maybe it wasn't the worst phone call ever but pretty close. See I am not an out spoken put me in the spot light kind of gal. Actually being in the spot light is kinda terrifying. Soooo what was this phone call all about? I was asked to speak in sacrament meeting THIS Sunday. I know you are thinking really that was it? All this drama for that? YES!! This is terrifying for me. I would rather have to go to the dentist everyday (and I hate going to the dentist.) I kept thinking of things I could say to justify not speaking and they all sounded so ridiculous. So I had to say yes. Some of you were born speakers, you love to get up in front of people and you are good at it... it is called a gift. I did not acquire that gift. Just teaching my primary class makes me a nervous wreck. I only have a couple days to get this talk written. Not fun lets just get this over with and pray next time I am asked to speak I am out of town indefinitely.

ps... i have the best husband ever. he is going to speak instead. i love that man. he is so awesomely good to me! (9:42pm)
pss... Paul gave a really nice talk today! Someone told him it was down to earth. :) He was like well, that is all I know. I was only able to hear bits and pieces. Turns out when you are the lone Ref it is much harder to keep 6 kids quiet. :) So I am sure I missed a bit but I was trying really hard to listen in spite of all the shhh be quiets, sit downs, the coloring assignments of my (almost)4 year old, and the baby bonking his head on the wood part of the bench (twice). We survived though!
