I have the Young Women's president upset with me because in our house we fast for two meals or twenty-four hours. She showed me the Young Women's hand book tonight and it doesn't state what the duration of the fast is. I don't really care, but I don't want her to think that I am totally off my rocker either. I sent her an email with some of the church's guidelines. I can't wait until tomorrow night when she has more proof that I am wrong. I have to decide that I will not let it affect me. It doesn't say in the Ensign what the duration of the fast should be. She told me that it was an ancient law that I was living. Oh well--what else can I do. I seem to stir up trouble in every presidency that I am in. The last time I stuck to my guns, because I fed my children the sacrament, I almost chased several families out of the church. Now they all give their children the sacrament, but at that time they wouldn't even reconsider it.
What a life.
