Talk

We had a momentous occasion at our house yesterday. Bob gave his first talk in Sacrament meeting. As many of you know, Calvin is petrified of getting up in front of people. His first assignment to talk in Primary caused him to throw up the morning of the talk. Every talk after that in Primary was not much better. So since he turned 12, we have tried to prepare him for this day but he was still really nervous. He avoided any throwing up, though. Mom gave a talk, too. So I was up on the stand to help give him support. (For the record, mom was just as nervous as Bob). He stumbled a little at the start, and avoided looking up at all but he did great! He mumbled a bit, but considering how hard it was for him, he did wonderful!

After church he did a ceremonial burning of the talk. Here are pictures of that.
