September..September..hmm where do i start, perhaps start on a happy note, almost a month ago now, i got called and sustained as the First councillor of the Relief Society in the Brisbane ward, at first I was a bit overwhelmed, when a member of the Bishopric called me for an interview, i seriously thought of declining this calling, because i feel like i wont be able to fulfill it well as i have a little baby that demands most of my time, but i thought to myself, if the Lord wants me to serve in this area, i know that He will guide me and help me find the strength and courage to fulfill my calling both as a mother and a councillor, this is actually my 3rd calling in the RS (all within this year), i was a VT supervisor in the beginning of the year and then i was released and, got called to be the secretary and then now as the RS first councillor, I do love every single calling that has been extended to me and I enjoy serving my sisters in zion, and i am grateful for their confidence in me, I can only do my best and I know that the Lord will help me with the rest.
On the 15th of September, I got into an accident (this is the not so happy part :()I was on my way to the shops to do my grocery shopping, Chad is at home with Kellan (he's sleeping at the time) thank goodness, I didn't get hurt, not even a scratch, I am so lucky to be alive, i was so scared, all I can think of at the time is Kellan and Chad (never been into an accident before, this is my major crash) I totalled my car, it's written off :(, it's old but its still running alright, we already have a plan of getting a new one at the beginning of next year until our car dies but obviously i killed it before hand (The accident is not my fault, if you're all wondering) so Chad is now hunting for a car that would last us until we can afford to get the new car that we want, it's been a bit stressful month for us but we're now slowly getting back to normal. I am very grateful for the help we got from the family, for lending us their car when we need it until we get our own, so until then.

Good luck with your new calling. I'm sure you'll do great.
Sorry to hear about the accident. Ritchell has been in 1 accident. It is definitely a scary experience no matter what. Ritchell nearly totaled the other car, but our car only had a small scratch and a hole where the license plate used to be.
Glad to hear that everyone is OK.
