Kaya's First Talk

Kaya gave gave her first talk in church a couple of weeks ago. Emily was really sick, so I wasn't able to see it in person. I put everything together and helped her memorize most of it. She needed a few hints from Dad but did very well. She read each line of her talk and held up a corresponding picture (In parentheses):

I am a child of God. (Kaya)
And He has sent me here. (Earth)
Has given me an earthly home. (House)
With parents kind and dear. (Mom & Dad)
I know my Father lives. (Heart)
And loves me too.
The Spirit whispers this to me. (Girl Praying)
And tells me it is true.
I need my Heavenly Father. (Girl Reading Scriptures)
To help me every day.
He wants me to be happy. (CTR)
And choose the righteous way.


Here's a picture of her before she left for church:

That rocks!! Isaac gave his first scripture and prayer last week as a Sunbeam and I was so nervous for him that I was shaking! He marched right up to the microphone and said his scripture and prayer all by himself (he told me he didn't need help). I love this age.

Wohoo!! I love sunbeams, sometimes their talks are the most interesting... probably because they are short and sweet!
