So the grocery store was an absolute nightmare. The wholesale store went just fine. But the actual grocery store was bad. Really bad. And all those little grandmas that just want to help. Ugh! I swear I aged another ten years. Caleb was screaming the entire way and the twins were hanging and climbing on the car cart the whole time. But thankfully they all fell asleep on the way home and I managed to get everything put away. And Caleb just woke up and announced he's not mad at me anymore. Hallelujah!
Anyway, for Primary a few weeks ago they talked about how we each have different talents and how Heavenly Father loves us all, no matter how many talents we have. Then the kids were supposed to write down one talent that they wanted to share with the entire Primary. Noah and Denver both wrote down that they can do a flip on the trampoline. When I was in Primary and had to do the same thing, I struggled to come up with even one thing that I thought was worthy of sharing. I hated talking about myself. The more invisible I was, the better. But Hunter. . . he had no problem coming up with all sorts of things to share. Just look. . .
For those of you struggling to read what he wrote, I'll translate:
kidding, saving, writing, wall-ball, computer games, baseball (x2), art, drawing, hand writing, puzzles, music, math, reading, sound effects, cello, recorder, piano, voice, teaching, speed, strategy games, school, tricking, concentrating, P.E., cursive, gymnastics, coolness, staying on one topic, working, DS-ing, letter boxing, alliances, playing smart guy. My favorites are "coolness," "staying on one topic," and "playing smart guy."
Hunter has always been very confident. And it never ceases to amaze me how many people know Hunter and love him too. But I don't think I ever realized just how very confident he is. Maybe he's a little over confident, maybe not. But if I had to choose between too much confidence or not enough, I'd definitely go for the over confidence. And plus, he didn't even mention these talents: great babysitter, fabulous massage therapist, big-hearted, and just plain hilarious. We love you Hunter and we're glad you're ours.
