Alexander's first talk in primary



Well my proud moment as a first time mother came this past Sunday. Alexander was assigned his first talk in Primary, "Jesus is my Savior and Redeemer". We found pictures on the internet that Alexander could color and then put a talk together using those pictures. He had five pictures and the talk went like this:

Jesus is our Savior because he was born into the world to save us.

Jesus is our Savior because he taught the little children how to be kind.

Jesus is our Savior because he helped the people

Jesus is our Savior and Redeemer because he died on the cross for us so we can live with our Heavenly Father again

Jesus is our Savior and Redeemer because he came back to life after he died for us.

In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

He had the talk memorized by Sunday but when it came time to actually give the talk, he leaned down and told his Dad "okay, now you have to whisper in my ear and tell me everything I need to say". I think he thought that was just what you were suppose to do as that is what everyone else did.

I was also happy because Zac's Mother came to church with us and was able to witness this proud moment. It was a good day!

Sweet talk. I will have to "borrow" it when it comes time for Ben to give a talk:)
I am sure he did a great job of pronouncing his words and speaking clearly just like Grandma Marilyn would've wanted:)
Way to go Alexander!!!
