My beautiful primary girls

Saturday, I had the opportunity to witness a very special event. I guess I haven't talked about them on here before, but there are four young girls that have become very much a part of my life. At church I have the privilege of teaching four very distinguished, beautiful, smart, spiritual girls in primary. They are the 7-8 year old's, which in our faith is a very special number. At eight years of age a child gets baptized. So I have been prepping these girls and pumping them up all year for this very event as I'm sure their families are as well. These young ladies make going to church so fun and something that I always look forward to.

Saturday, two of my girls Jenna, and Jilian got baptized. The baptism was beautiful and spirit was strong there, especially when they both sang the song, "I Know When I Am Baptized," which was so beautiful and brought tears to my eyes as it brought me back to my very own baptism when I sang that same song. Both these girls have such an amazing knowledge of the gospel at their young age, that they often end up teaching me in our Sunday school lessons. I love these girls very much and I am so very proud of this beautiful life changing commitment that they have chosen to make.
