I turned over all of my girls camp stuff to the stake leaders today. (I was released due to my new calling last week) This was very difficult. I didn't think it would be that hard.
I had been working on camp only scents June. I know that sounds like along time, but camp isn't until next June.
Anyway, I cried. I didn't want to. I thought I would be fine. I had already cried so I was sure I that I was done. Whatever. They asked a little about how I came to the theme for camp, and there came the waterworks.
I guess it was just going to happen. I want so much for the young women to go to camp and come away knowing for sure that their Father in Heaven loves them. I want them to see the potential they have to become great women. I want them to bloom into the amazing people I know they are. I know girls camp is a great place to teach them.
I know I will still be there with our ward. However, there is something to seeing girls camp for the perspective of a stake leader you don't get anywhere else. Kris said the something about being a ward leader. I think we are both right.
So now it is in the very capable hand of the stake leaders. I know they will do a great job. I sure they wont change to many of my ideas.(I know where they live JK) They are such great leaders. They only have the girls best interest in mind. They will follow the promptings of the Lord and seek him often in pray for guidance.
I will miss so much serving with them and want to say thank you to all of them for their great example and their love while I was with them.
You all are the best.

You are such a great example to me. Thank you so much for the love that you put into this calling. I know that when the Lord inspires you, you listen. That's what is so great about you (along with so much more). I hope that vision you have stays true.
Its okay to cry. A great man told me not to long ago, it only means you care and put your heart into it. If you didn't cry, that would be truley sad.
You have done a great job and I am so excited you are still with my girls.

You are a rock star! (I learned that from watching you...) I really saw how much you cared about the YW when I went to camp with you. I know that they felt the Spirit and came away with a stronger testimony. I agree with you about the perspective. We have stake camp this year and after going as a stake leader I can see the benefits of both. I know the girls in the 10th ward look up to you and will learn so much from your strength, testimony, and example!
