Little Milestones

This morning Savannah stood in front of our congregation

and shared her sweet little testimony.

She actually spoke into the microphone

and the shy giggling was minimal.

To top it off, as soon as she was finished,
Vanessa yelled out, "Sister!"

and cheered for her as she came back to sit with us.

And then, we were very surprised to see

Vanessa walk into the nursery

under her own volition--

without any tears.

 You see, she usually starts sobbing

as soon as Sacrament meeting ends

because she knows that she will soon

be dropped off at her class.

By the time we get to the classroom,

she's in hysterics

so the fact that she wasn't crying

and was even willing to go on her own was a

big deal.

Eric and I were so surprised that we just stood there,

until we realized that we could just walk off to our own classes.

Our girls are growing up way too fast.
