Primary Program

It's pretty much my favorite Sunday of the year!

Once a year, the children in our church treat us to a sacrament meeting program.

They sing songs and bare testimony of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Their little shenanigans, the silly faces they make, the loud singing and talking into the microphone..etc... etc...

only add to the joy of it all!

The children memorized their parts and felt so important about being asked to speak in front of EVERYONE.

They did SO great!

Some of my favorite moments during the primary program:

*Winking at Sport and watching him try to sing and wink back at me.

 *Watching Princess open her mouth really big while trying to sing (something she's been practicing in Junior Choir).

*Laughing at Minnie's scrunched up face as she watched the little friend next to her pick a boogie.

*Hearing Sister W. laugh out loud at Sport's actions for the foolish man while singing The Wise Man and the Foolish Man song (It's hilarious!).

*Seeing Minnie's great big grin after she recited her part without any help (This was her first Primary Program).

*Princess's thumbs up after she made it through her talk without saying "I" instead of "We" (something she kept doing at home).

Yup. They brighten my life.

Here is what they said:

Sport: "Jesus Christ taught us the right way to live. In His Sermon on the Mount, He taught us to be righteous; to let our light shine for others; to be peacemakers; to be humble, and to be pure in heart. We feel our Savior's love when we try to be like Him."

Princess: "When we choose to obey our parents, we are blessed to have peace in our home."

Minnie: "I choose the right when I obey my parents."

I'm hoping they remember these simple testimonies forever!

This evening, while sport was off running around with his cousins, the girls sang a few of their favorite Primary songs from the program at church for Grandpa and Grandma...

Love it!
