3-10-2013 (also Grandma Embley's Birthday)
Auburn gave her first talk in primary today. She did amazing. I stood in the back and cried the whole time. I could tell she was really nervous because she tried to hide behind her Jesus picture the whole time she spoke. Greg asked her how it made her feel to stand up and give a talk in primary and she said "sad" but I think she meant nervous/scared.
In case you can't hear the words this is what she said:
"This is Jesus Christ.
We believe that through the atonement of Christ all mankind may be saved that by the obedience and laws and ordinances of the gospel.
Jesus Christ created the world, healed the sick, died for us.
All the families are loved by Jesus.
In the name of Jesus Christ Amen."
Greg helped Auburn write her own talk. We asked her questions like "who does Jesus love?" and "What did Jesus do?" and used her answers for her talk. We also had her say the third article of faith (all of them are found here, which are the basics of what our church teaches) that she had memorized.
Grandma Embley and Aunt Daryl also gave talks on this same day! It wasn't the first time for either of them, but something fun to remember for the future. :)
