It went so well! Our theme was a nightly news broadcast. The Laurels were the news anchors and reporters while the Beehives and Mia Maids did commercials on the 7 YW values ("and now a word from our value sponsor".) They were clever and everything went so well. For the "local news" I put together a slide show to recap the year and highlight the personal progress each girl has completed this year. I loved that the girls did the program and it was all about them.
I felt so much less stress than last year. I'm sure a lot of it is because it wasn't my first one and I'm learning to delegate more and more. They gave me flowers at the end of the night. I was really touched. I'm always so critical of myself and I feel like I haven't been doing enough. I appreciate their acknowledgment.
I love these Young Women. How instantly they become like my own. I worry and pray and love them every day. I hope I can do my best to be a positive force in their lives. I also hope and pray that my own daughters will have leaders that love them just as much.

What a good idea, Rachel. We have our coming up next month, but we haven't even thought of an idea yet. I'm sure you're glad yours is done and over with!
