Cantata
Today was the canata. Things went well. At least that's from my point of view, being a part of it. Bethany was great on the piano, of course. The guys (who are rather unpredictable at times) pulled their weight. Kyle's solo was nice too. I was so nervous for him. I dont know why, its not like I didnt think he'd do a good job. But when he went up, I could feel my heart pound. It was as though I was singing it or something. Sometimes it feels like we're the same person. Adriel was noisy and had to be kept out of the chapel.
The two of us didnt get much sleep last night. He woke up at two and when I went to put him back down at around three, he woke up and was wide awake. Not interested in nursing, but wanting to play. Uh... I dont think so. So I lay him in his crib and he made noise for about another hour, before taking his soother and falling asleep. I had to get up for church at nine. You see, last week was our last day in the mt benson ward. But, the relief society was singing in church and Bethany and I were some of the few altos so we went for the singing. As as was sitting there, I realized how at home I felt in that ward. I never really realized it before. I was excited when we decided to move back to the nanaimo ward, its always been home to me. I was disappointed when we were asked to stay put. Well, I had mixed feelings, but mostly disappointed. It wasnt until we were asked to start going to the Nanaimo ward it occured to me that the mt benson ward is what I know now. Its what Im comfortable with. I have friends. There are lots of young couples. I felt sad to leave them. It was a sadness that they deserved. I shouldnt have been happy to leave in the first place. They were good to us. The nanaimo ward was nice though. Relief society is so different. The women all laugh and joke amongst themselves a lot more. They were almost giddy. It was amusing....Anyway, I sort of got off on a tangent. I was able to have a nap between church and cantata. But I was in such a deep sleep, that when Kyle woke me up, I was confused, like couldnt remember what day it was, or the time, or why I needed to get up. My whole body yearned to stay put. That makes for a agitated Stott. Rudely awakened as Laura would put it. And I was. He jumped on me to wake me up.
So, now that the baby is in bed, Im off too. just thought I should update. Christmas!!!!
