We recently moved from NY to WA, and while I am doing my best to get out there and meet everyone and be as involved as possible, it is hard to move to a new place and make new friends. I was having a little pity party today because my husband has been gone for several months (he is in the Army doing training and moved us here and then left for 6 months) and won't be home for 6 more weeks, and I was missing all my NY friends and the way the ward felt so comfortable there. Here I am still in that "does she like me or is she being polite" stage and still trying to find the people with whom I really connect. This post made me realize that some day (hopefully soon) this ward will feel comfortable and familiar, too.

I have lived away from most of my family since I was 17 years old, so my ward is very important to me. A few years ago our ward split and took on "extras" from a third ward. I totally dreaded it but it ended up with a new dynamic which was different but still good. I am that person who would never go to ward activities if no one called or e-mailed or shoved flyers in my face--and I am always glad when I go.Elizahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13943126446575413050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597252.post-20024933668744764682012-04-06T17:32:35.505-06:002012-04-06T17:32:35.505-06:00Thanks once again for fresh perspective.

Thanks for the reminder to be more grateful for the village (aka: ward) who helps raise my family.
