The Big Leagues

I must say, I'm breathing a little easier tonight. I am in the Primary presidency in our church ward, and today was our Primary Program. This is a special Sunday where the Primary aged children (4-11 years old) put on the bulk of our Sacrament service. Now, we have over 200 kids in our Primary (our ward had about 900 people there on Sunday), and had about 100 children to fit up front today, so we were just doing crowd control for much of it! There were songs and speaking parts and it all actually went very well. But for me, my heart was beating a little faster because Cloudburst had a solo singing part! She sang the first verse of a song called "When Jesus Christ was Baptized." She did great! I was much more nervous than she was. Thunder was also great and helped us get the dozens of chairs, risers, and benches back to their respective homes. Even though it was a lot of work and stress, it was very fun to see all those cute kids up there.
And our other big kid moment was for Sunshine. BYU had a football game yesterday, and we thought Sunshine might like to attend. Well.... they came home during the third quarter. Sunshine kept asking to come home, and even fell asleep in the midst of 60,000 screaming fans! Sunshine has still been talking nonstop about it so at least he still thought it was fun.

She did sooooo good! I bet you were so proud. I wouldn't even get up and sing in front of that size of a crowd.

I'm breathing easier too.
I hope he had fun at the game- GO COUGARS! Wait....(I did find myself wondering what the score was on Saturday though....) what does that mean??!
