New Ward, farewell my little precious sunbeams! :(

So, the family ward that we have been in has changed.  The Stake was up for some boundary changes and we were the part that got shaved off and put into a different ward.  This change got us to thinking about whether we should continue going to a family ward or start going to the married student ward.  Unsure of where exactly we are supposed to go, we went to both on Sunday.  We both feel that we need to start going to the married student ward, which I am really excited about.  I loved the family ward, and learned so much, but feel that there are things we can learn in the married student ward that we will never have the opportunity to experience again.  We're excited to get to know some more couples that are more similar to where we are right now.  It should be good.

We are no longer sunbeam teachers which is very sad.  We were automatically released when the ward boundaries changed.  I loved those kids so much and Bryson did too.  But because of the ward split, we know that we learned everything Heavenly Father wanted us to learn in that calling for now, and he is now telling us to move on to the student ward.  We'll see what adventures are in store for us now!

In honor of my sunbeams, I wanted to tell a funny story from one of our darling little girls, Mei.  She is the cutest little thing and absolutely hilarious!  She's a little diva and says the funniest things.  She has a tendency to be dramatic and when something doesn't go her way, she'll say with the most precious little pouty face, "you're making me saaaad!"  Then she will proceed to grab her chair and drag it to the corner and sit there facing the wall talking about how sad she is.  You can't really do anything but laugh until she decides her 'terrible sadness' is over and joins the group again. haha- seriously LOVE this little girl.  Bryson and I would die trying not to laugh every time this happened.  One week, Bryson decided to try her own trick on her.  She was doing something silly (can't remember what) when we were trying to teach the lesson and Bryson turns to her and says, "Mei....you're making me sad!"  Mei then looked right at Bryson and said, pointing, "Go sit in the corner!"  hahahahahaha- i could NOT control my giggles this time as Bryson stared at this smart little girl in shock.  Maybe you had to be there, but I assure you, it was HILARIOUS!

I miss my sunbeams!!!!!!
