October 2022, Week 4

*Today at church a youth got up to speak without any notes.  He is on the high school football team, with a super cool and casual manner, and I thought, "Hmm--looks like someone forgot to prepare a talk."  I was so wrong!  He gave a beautiful talk about a General Conference talk and it was memorized!  He even quoted from the talk, and related it to being a youth.  I was unfairly judgmental.  I told his mom after how much I enjoyed his talk, and she said she didn't even know he was speaking until he asked when he should go sit on the stand.

*A sweet baby was blessed today.  It makes me think of my babies getting their blessings, and now I get to see them being fulfilled.  Life is long.  Life is short.  I'm grateful for experiencing it all.

*I played the piano for a choir number.  Thankfully it went well.  I'm not fully comfortable in this role as substitute choir pianist, but the Lord is helping me, and I do have plenty of time to practice.  My eyes are questionable sometimes--I have to wear my glasses on days when they're tired.

*Funny note with my Sunbeams: my co-teacher is from the Philippines, and I love her.  She does have a bit of an accent, which usually isn't a problem. She was telling the kids that "Jeremiah had appeared..." (I don't remember the rest of it).  A cutie said, "My dad has a beard!"  Took me a minute to figure out why she said that. ☺ 

It was a delight!
