Yesterday our Stake had a special visit from an Apostle, Neil L. Andersen. It was a great experience for Geren and I, because we got to sing in the choir. It was so neat for me to be able sit up front so close to Elder Andersen. He kept turning around while we were singing showing his huge smile and giving us thumbs up.
It was also nice because I got to sit through an entire meeting without ANY interruptions! I am so thankful for some good friends of ours for watching our kids at the church for all 4 hours!! (The choir had to be there 2 hours ahead of time to practice before the meeting. )
Well, my son was not having it with his mom being up on the stand the whole time. So, my friend, Melanie, had to keep him outside because otherwise he would run through the crowd and come to get me. While they were waiting outside they saw Elder Andersen pull up, but Quincey was still fighting to get inside, so she told him that she really wanted to stay here so that they can meet him, and that he was here to teach us about Jesus. When Q heard this, he stopped fighting for a second and said in a defeated tone, "Okay, you can go see Jesus." How considerate of him!
She of course clarified who they were actually meeting. And he got to shake his hand.
After the meeting Quincey ran to Geren and said, 'Daddy, you make me so happy.' We love our little boy.
