Because next week is General Conference, today was fast Sunday. While listening to the testimonies of others in the congregation, my youngest came up to my husband and I and said he wanted to bear his testimony. I didn’t want to go up, but he was so cute and I feel you need to let your children do things like that when they want to. So up we went. He started: “I’d like to bear my testimony” and then he stopped. He’d seen how many people were in the congregation and talked loud so that everyone could hear and scared himself! I couldn’t get him to say anything else. I was proud of him and his willingness to try.
In Primary he was asked to give the scripture. All week we practiced 1 John 4:14: And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world. He even had a bunch of it memorized. Well, that cute little one got up after scaring himself an hour earlier and said the scripture. When he was done, he said to his teacher: “I didn’t scare myself!” I am so proud of that
little one!
