So it's official. Joseph is growing up. He just got baptized during the summer. We took him to The Roof and talked to him, and walked him around Temple Square. Some man came up and was asking for money, and Joseph offered him some of his Birthday money. Matt and I just looked at each other, but now I understand when they say we need to become like a little child. He was so eager to help in any way, and although we talked to him about being careful, I was grateful that he was trying to keep with his baptismal promises. On Sunday, the Bishop invited him to come up to sit on the stand with him. He also talked about how Joseph was a good example of how the gospel is about having joy, and Joseph reminded him of that. He smiled the whole time. I am so proud of him and all that he learning and trying to become.
