GOING TO CONFERENCE

    When I was a kid my mom used to send me to Sunday school faithfully every Sunday. But when conference rolled around not only didn't she send me but I wasn't even allowed to go. I wasn't allowed to go for many years and I knew that all the other kids went to conference because they talked about it from time to time. I begged to go for years and then finally I got to go. When conference came the next time, it was my own decision not to go. And I never went willingly again. If mom told me to get ready for church I would say, oh it's conference today, and if it was indeed conference it seems like most of the time I was able to beg off.
