Mr. B the Memorizing Machine

A couple weeks ago, on fast Sunday, Mr. B excitedly asked Brett and I if he could bare his testimony. The day of total proudness and yet complete nervousness had arrived for me. I don't know why it makes me anxious for my kids to bare their testimonies...actually yes I do...I have no idea what they are actually going to say in that microphone. With that said, we told Mr. B he had to go all by himself...no help...and asked if he was ready for that. He said yes and proceeded to tell us what he might say. We gave him the okay and he walked his little self up on to the stage of the chapel and stood right next to the podium where someone was already baring their testimony...hilarious. Our kind bishop had him come and sit on his lap until the other person was finished. Mr. B looked so small yet so grown up behind the podium. He had a little stage fright at first, but ended up doing a great job. He even ended up reciting his favorite scripture, which he had memorized a few weeks before. I just can't believe how much Bradock seems to have grown up since we moved to Payson.

Today was our ward's primary program and Bradock had the opportunity to do some more memorizing. He has such an amazing talent for it and was so excited to say his part for the program. Both sets of grandparents and Uncle Justin came all the way to Payson just to hear him say "Through Joseph Smith, Heavenly Father restored the Priesthood. Christ's church cannot work without the power of the priesthood." He did yet another amazing job. I am just so proud of my smart, little boy.

I can't forget Miss Raylee girl. Even though she wasn't part of the primary program she memorized Bradock's part too. She even has his scripture memorized. I just can't believe how big my kids are...I love it. They constantly amaze me with the things they can do.

Here are some recent pics of Mr. B. He had so much fun hanging out with cousin Cooper and going for a "Ranger ride" with dad and cousin David. Mr. B is also loving the new tramp that Grandma and Grandpa gave us. They are building a pool in their backyard, so we got their old tramp...yipee for us.
