Oozing with pride

to be his mom.

Shayne spoke in church today.

His first talk ever.

I think I was more nervous than he was.

He stood and spoke about honoring his priesthood.

A talk he wrote by himself.

He did amazing.

He was confident and poised.

I had a huge smile and my heart filled to the brim with pride.

And giant mascara tears rolling down my checks.

I'm thankful he's mine.

What a handsome young man, and what a great thing to be proud of. They sure grow up quickly don't they? It is these sweet moments that make the bad ones disappear. Well done Shayne!!

Oh that is so cute! My oldest son just received the priesthood and passed the sacrament for the first time this past Sunday. I felt some of those same emotions. Isn't it wonderful to be a mother?
