My brother was Bishop of the Hyde Park Ward in Chicago, when they finally bought property and built a chapel, after years of renting an old place. We visited when it was finished, and he proudly showed us around. There was one room upstairs, very spacious, with a beautiful round window. He declared that they had decided such a beautiful room should be for the most deserving group, and so it would be for the nursery.
Over almost 4 years serving as the primary president in our ward, the most difficult calling to fill has been nursery. I have volunteered (very seriously) several times to be released from my calling to serve in the nursery. I would love to serve those little ones who are so easy to love. There isn't a happier place to serve in our church than the primary.
