The time has come! We officially have the priesthood in our home! Joe and I are so excited, he was ordained on Easter Sunday and sustained today (April 11th)...What a blessing it is. I am so proud of him! We have so many things we want to do now! We just cant wait!
And to make an even great moment great - ALL of Joe's brothers and sister were in town to partake in the joyous moment with Joe. Which mostly, was just a bunch of us Whitney's crying! But it was great! I look back on even a year ago and cant believe we are where we are! We are lucky to have such wonderful family and friends who kept cheering us on and helped us to find our own ways. We love you!
And while I am already here - I have to tell you the funniest thing that Kaleb came up and said to Joe and I today - it was simple poetic beauty!
"Mom, Dad, do you know how much I love you?"
"oh how much?"
"I love you like the moon loves the dark, like the sun loves the day, like the stars love the night, like the cars love to drive, like the dragons love to growl, like the wind loves to blow, like the rain loves to fall, and like 10 times!"
I couldn't help but to laugh and hug him! Out of the mouths of babes!! And he drew out all the words as he said them, truly like he had spent the time to write it and practice it! He is truly the greatest little squirt in the whole wide world!!
