Mason and Aunt Amelia

Mason and his Godmother , Aunt Amelia, on their Valentines date at Baja Fresh.

Mason gave his first talk this last Sunday in primary.  James and I were beyond proud of our little, fearless (at least public-speaking wise) boy. Mason was thrilled that he finally got asked and was excited about his big moment all week long. (When Mason is happy or excited he sings a series of quick-paced da-da-da's in various melodies-most often to the first line of Jingle Bells). All last week he was da-da-da-ing and, since he was so pleased with how well his talk went, he has been da-da-da-ing ever since. 

Speaking of excitement, he was almost as excited for his talk as he was for his "children's date" with his Aunt Amelia this Valentines Day! I really couldn't blame him for the latter though since I'm pretty fond of my Big Dipper, too. :)
