Catch up...

I have months to cover but I just want to write quickly about what is freshest in my mind. Our ward had the Primary Program this past Sunday. Owen's first one. His line was "Heavenly Father gave me hands to fold and to hug" and he memorized it the second that I read it to him. He was so excited to do it in the microphone and he did a wonderful job. I was a proud momma, but at the same time I sat there thinking to myself, "how has he gotten so big?" He sat up on the stand without his mom or dad for he entire hour and he was well behaved and mostly attentive as he kept waving to the family that came to support him. He has really come to love going to Primary and his Sunbeams class and I love his simple and beautiful testimony. The other day he found a picture of Jesus and sat on the couch and made up a song about how he died for us and then he came back to live again. He's smart, and sweet, and observant, and really takes in the things he's taught. It's a beautiful thing to watch as his mother.
