Mom, don't you have a meeting this morning?

Jonny asked me this morning if I had a meeting. I typically do, so he was really just wondering why I was home. I get to be the YW President in our ward and have a morning meeting three of the four Sundays each month. (Besides, the usual 3 hour block.) I don't have any extra meetings on the 5th Sunday.
Layne's calling is Elders Quorum President, so he has two of the same meetings I do on Sunday mornings. Today, he had a meeting at 9, was home for a few minutes and left for another meeting that started at 11. He was home long enough for us to get out the door for the regular Sunday meetings we go to and now has three individuals/groups of people he's meeting with lined up. Megan was just asking about where Daddy was and why we weren't eating yet. I told her he had more meetings. She responded with, "Tell all those people to stop meeting with him!". It made me laugh. We're not used to Dad being gone all day on Sundays while we're home. It's odd for me because I'm used to having the meetings while Layne is home. I'm sure he's glad that there's not another 5th Sunday coming up in awhile! All of his meetings were administrative...he still get to do the ministering part.
The cool thing is...he's the one that got dinner taken care of...it's simmering in the crock pot right now. Yep...he's a keeper.
