A Special 12th Birthday

Tyson celebrated his 12th birthday this past week ... and as far as birthdays go, it was a very special one. Turning 12 and having been found worthy by our church's bishop, Tyson received the Aaronic Priesthood on Sunday. He was sustained by the local members and then received the Priesthood by the laying on of hands from his Dad. Needless to say, he's excited to have the Priesthood in his life - an opportunity to serve. He's already looking forward to passing the Sacrament this next Sunday. It was exciting to see his excitement too in receiving a new set of scriptures from his parents and grandparents. He got a "quad" that includes the Bible and the Book of Mormon and has already begun to mark his favoritte scriptures. We couldn't be more proud of him.
