Ten years ago, I was put into the Young Women organization of my Provo ward. I served there as 1st Counselor, and later, President for a space of 4 years. What a marvelous space of time!! I had the BEST young women!! Each one with different views, talents, laughs, strengths, trials and dispositions. It was one of the greatest experiences of my life, and I was personally blessed on so many levels by these amazing young women.
Now.....ten years later....we are reuniting! At the end of the month, we are having a "Laurel Reunion!" Some are working, traveling, going to school, mommies, becoming 1st time mommies, wives, aunts...basically taking on the world before them!
We have indeed come full circle. Instead of Sis B, I am now, Laura. Instead of a leadership role, it is now a sisterhood and friendship. I look at these young women and feel a depth of love and pride, almost maternal, but not quite. It's something indescribable, but so joyful to my soul.
Circles of life...beautiful to behold.

I am ECSTATIC! Oh the memories... You have truly made a huge impact in my life and defiantly helped in shaping who I am. Love you lots.
I think I'm more excited about the REUNION than I am Christmas?!!
What's interesting is that I don't think you gals realize the impact you each had on MY life?!
Cannot wait, Nycole!!!!
