A few weeks ago our ward had a primary activity on baptism. It was my first Wednesday after getting released as the young womens president and I was grateful to be able to attend the activity with Donaven. He was a little reluctant at first. He kept asking me if I was going to leave him. I finally assured him that I wasn't going anywhere and he calmed down and started to really enjoy himself. He even raised his hand several times to answer questions. After a great talk and activity on baptism the children were escorted to the font at the back of our building where they continued the discussion of baptism.
Donaven got right up in front and pressed his nose to the glass. He was really curious and seemed to soak it all in. I loved his eagerness to learn about the gospel. It made me realize that he can understand a lot more than I give him credit for. I am so grateful for this bright and and energetic boy in my life. I hope to help him grow closer to his Heavenly Father that when the day comes for him to enter the waters of baptism he will be prepared to keep the covenants he is making. I am sure the time will fly by and I will wish to have a few more still moments like this with my sweet little boy.

I'm so glad he enjoyed the activity. That picture is so precious with his nose pressed against the glass. What a sweet little boy you have. I sure hate that I had to miss it that night!!
