Priesthood Preview

We attended our Stake's Priesthood Preview for Sam last night. There were 10 boys and parent's from the stake receiving instructions from the Stake leadership about the priesthood they are to receive in the next year. They instructed the boys what they and we as parents have to do to help them receive the priesthood and all responsibilities entail. All the speakers spoke on preparing for a mission. And it hit me. hard, both of my boys are to serve missions. My eyes filled with tears. I am so grateful for Sam. In just 6 months he will be able to serve me the Sacrament. Then all the ordinances of the Priesthood will follow in years after that. I am grateful for the example Matt sets for Sam in practicing his priesthood. That led me to think, I am grateful for his uncles and cousins all he has seen using their priesthood in one way or another. I want you to know he notices you all and I know is well prepared in fulfilling his responsibilities.
