A Deacon in the house

Carter has turned 12 and that means his is officially in the Young Men's program in our ward.  He has been looking forward to this for a while since most of his friends have moved up since they are a year older than him.  I have already seen the increased confidence in him.  He enjoys passing the sacrament and the extra activities they do.  After only a month he was asked to give a talk in Sacrament meeting.  He was hesitate as first, but he did like a champ.  He had his talk typed out with a personal story about charity and few scriptures.  He was calm, spoke clearly and he did great.  There were some visitors sitting in front of us that told him that they enjoyed his talk and that he did very well for his first talk.  How did they know it was his first..well..Carter started out his talk telling everyone that it was his first one ever in front of this many people.  He got a few laughs with that comment.  Love this kid!
