Sophie's First Talk

Sophie's had a big weekend.

Saturday night she and 2 friends sang When Joseph Went to Bethlehem in our church Christmas Party.

Today at church, she sang a couple Christmas songs in sacrament meeting with the ward primary.

Then she gave her first talk ever in Primary today. I typed it below - these words are right out of her mouth - only excluding some of her more off the wall responses to my questions.

Jesus Loves Me


Jesus is special, he is our brother.

I'm grateful for Jesus.

I know he loves me because he created flowers, trees, animals and friends.

Most of all, I like that he was born.

I like Christmas because it is his birthday, and he was sent down [to earth].

He died too, but became alive again by a miracle.

I know Jesus lives.

I know Jesus loves us.

In the name of Jesus Christ,

Amen

I love primary talks. They teach so much to our youngsters. Her talk was so inspired. Maybe mor2 adults could become like children in out talks--less words and more Spirit!
