Yesterday was ward conference, and a member of the Stake Presidency stood up in the meeting to read the list of General, Stake, and Ward authorities/callings for the sustaining vote of the ward. A few sets of names through, Braden started to comment in an exasperated tone: "Why is this taking so long?" "Why are we raising our hands so many times?" "Why is MY dad the President?" Nathan is the Elder's Quorum President in our ward, and that is why his name was read. But after further discussion when we got home, we discovered (and corrected) that Braden thought Nathan had been made the president of the whole church!

Then during the sacrament, Rebecca leaned over to me and whispered, "I wish I could have some bread to hold." Apparently she was envious of the Deacons passing the sacrament. I replied, "Oh, sorry." Then she said again, "I wish I could hold some bread. How old do I have to be before I can hold some bread?" I told her that you have to be 12, but that you also have to be a boy because boys hold the Priesthood. She was disappointed, and who can blame her? Those plastic trays are sooooo cool. Luckily she didn't make a tearful scene in the middle of the meeting, but she did reply, "I still wish I could hold some bread." Then she got distracted by the water trays and told me that the large hole in the center of each tray is "like a trash can for the teeny tiny water cups."

BTW...Becca's glasses are so cute!! She is adorable!
That is funny...apparently it was a little long for a lot of kids. You need to read what Jared said in Primary.
One day Becca will be glad she DOESN'T have to hold the bread.
Awww, that's too cute! You should put up a picture of her with her glasses!!
Pretty darn cute!
