Priesthood

Tyler got the priesthood on Sunday.  It was really special.  The 11 year olds in church now get the priesthood in the beginning of the year so we had a couple get ordained.  What a historic event.  I thought of all these 11 year olds across the world being ordained to such an amazing calling and power.  I am really proud of him.  Since his surgery he has been doing really well emotionally. 

Scott and Tyler will be Deacons together for a year which I think is pretty special. Every other year they will be in the same quorum.  Scott and Tyler are serving in the presidency together which is a great opportunity of service and learning.  Scott had his first meeting and came home to tell us that the beach trip is now in August instead of September since he thinks it is warmer in August....so much to learn....lol! 

Their setting aparts reminded them what great responsibilities this was and how they can serve their family, their friends and their quorum.  I feel really blessed that it came at the same time that we are doing Come Follow Me to increase the Spirit and learning in the home.  It all goes hand in hand.  It is pretty incredible how changes all correlate and how prepared these youth are.  I feel lucky to be the mom of so many boys in the home who will one day be able to hold the priesthood and for my girls to be blessed by that so much.
