my turn!

Every Sunday as we are walking into sacrament meeting, I grab two programs. One for me and one for Kali. Kali quickly grabs her copy and hurries to our bench. There she opens the program and scans the list of primary names, searching, searching for these 9 letters, K-A-L-I - J-O-N-E-S. Sadly, with all the children in primary, most weeks she gets a disappointed look on her face and asks me when it will be her turn to give a talk, scripture, or say a prayer. She has had her name in there twice so far, both times were for a prayer. But this last Sunday a squeal of delight came from the end of the bench as Kali found her name and it was her turn to give her first scripture in primary!
As soon as we got home from church she wanted to get started on her scripture. She is supposed to pick a scripture and tell why she likes that scripture. We decided to have her memorize D&C 4:2 since this months theme in primary is,
"When we serve others, we serve God."

Kali loves to practice talks and loves to talk in front of people.
She loves to bear her testimony in church and has been doing it almost every month during fast and testimony meeting.

I am excited for her to get to give her first scripture in primary, I know she will do AWESOME!
