he's twelve . . .

. . . and that means we are getting up early.


He has been so excited to go to the temple, and has decided that we are going every week. We go early--Andrew is an early-riser. Mike and I are not, but I have to say that it is actually nice getting up early and going--just the three of us.


This morning when he came out of the dressing room, his tie was a bit of a mess. He said that he had a "wresting match with it" in the dressing room. Mike then commented that it was okay--he looked like a Deacon.

He was ordained a few weeks ago. He is excited to have some new responsibilities, and he is taking them very seriously. He is such a good kid. We are lucky to be his parents.

It is amazing how fast they grow! Savor it, cuz soon you will have a junior in high school, like I do....only 2 years and he leaves on a mission!

That is wonderful for you, Mike and Andrew to go to the temple. It's well worth getting up early for.
Andrew has been so excited about receiving the Priesthood.

This is one of the good parts of your kids growing up. So glad he is taking it so seriously.
