Happy birthday kiddo! Was it really 12 years ago today?
Jeran doesn't like cake. Instead he usually chooses to have cherry pie for his birthday...and today he wanted to light the candles without help.
But in the end with wax dripping all over his cake pie, and candles threatening to tip over, he allowed me to help.
Pie anyone?
My wake-up moment for the day was sitting in primary and watching Jeran walk out to priesthood meeting after receiving his Faith in God award. Joie was home from church sick today, and I was there in primary for the first time in years without any of my children there with me. I wanted to get up and go visit mutual!
Earlier, when the primary children sang happy birthday to Jeran, a little 7 year old girl sitting in front of me said, "Cool. He gets the priesthood on his birthday." Following church, Tim, Grandpa Jarman, Bishop VanWagoner, and Bill Farley (his primary teacher) ordained Jeran to the office of deacon in the Aaronic Priesthood. We're proud of you Jeran and love you tons.
