Dallin's Testimony

Dallin bore his testimony at church yesterday. Which is not an uncommon thing. He did a beautiful job. Close to the end he said he was grateful for the Nephites, the Jaredites, and the Israelites. It was so cute and touching. When he came back down to sit with the family, Dallin explained why he is grateful for those things. He said: Well, I'm grateful for the Nephites because without the Nephites we wouldn't have the Book of Mormon. Without the Jaredites the Lord wouldn't have performed a miracle and touch each stone with his finger. And, without the Israelites there would be no Moses. Jared and I couldn't help but to laugh a little. Dallin is a unique individual. He loves the scriptures and reads them on his own each day.

Amazing kid.

So cute. Love little Dallin with his BIG testimony. Isn't it great that children remind us what is really important? Glad he gets to go with Jared to conference this year. He will soak it up like a sponge. Oh, by the way...I got your comment and you no longer need to be crazy! I finally posted on my blog! Love you!
