Jeremy's First Talk


Jeremy gave his first talk on Sunday. Despite several great practice rounds with dad where Jeremy repeated everything his dad said and even ad-libbed some really appropriate stuff about our Heavenly Father and Jesus, JP lost it at the pulpit in the primary room. His legs failed to hold him up. His voice failed to project. Most importantly, little man was overcome by a huge case of the sillies. I guess this is why they get to speak in primary - to get some practice before they start giving youth talks. We were still really proud of him. Jeremy did stand up there and he did try which must be pretty overwhelming for a four year old. Jeremy was pretty proud of himself when he was done with his talk.

I was cracking up!!! He was too cute. You labled it perfect "a case of the sillies!!" But he did it and finished it, he kept staring at me and I would nod my head and tell him "good job" or whatever and as I thought he was going to get better, he got even more silly! He cracks me up!!

I was trying not to CHEEESE it too much... I think it was making him nervous. lol. Just trying to be encouraging. He's SO fun and silly, as they ALL are at this age. He did a great job!

He has a long life of talking in church ahead of him. I think its great he can start at 4. I am witness to his good practice rounds on Saturdays.
