We Got A Gem

These two are supposed to represent visiting teachers.
It's May 18th, and I'm thinking.... it's time to start thinking about Visiting Teaching.

Get this.......one of our ladies calls this morning and asks, "Did you just call me?" My partner's answer; "Um no, but I was just thinking that I need to". I don't know if she missed a phone call or not, but she let us know that she will be unavailable for the rest of the month. We made appointments for tomorrow morning. Honestly, it is her way to let us know that we need to come tomorrow, if we want to catch her, without being pushy, or letting us not catch her and then feel bad about that. I appreciate that so much. I know I've had times that I've known that there are only "X" amount of days that mine could catch me, but I've never once called to let them know. I'll bet they would appreciate that when they can't find me as the month comes to a close.

She must like your visit if she is worried that you might miss her. She must think she has gems for VT's too.

I'm not too sure about that. She is just a good person.

We once had a bishop that encouraged us to make treats and "invite" our home teachers over. We did that a few times. Never thought about something similar for visiting teaching. It's not only thoughtful, but a darn good idea.
