Jacob's talk

Jacob wowed the entire primary today by reading this talk without any help. I'm pretty sure that one day we'll wake up to find that our boys have declared coup and taken over our house, the city, or maybe even the world. We're pretty lucky parents to have kids who came to us bursting with so much ability.

The talk:

One Spring day, Joseph Smith went into the forest to pray to Heavenly Father. He wanted to know which church was the true church so he could go to that one. Heavenly Father and Jesus appeared to him and told him not to join any church. They also taught him important things. When they appeared, they were separate beings, and from this Joseph Smith learned that Heavenly Father and Jesus each have a body of their own that look like our bodies. He also learned that he would be important in helping many people return to live with our Heavenly Father again. I am grateful for Joseph Smith, the prophet, and for the Gospel plan that was restored through him. In the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
