Well, we have definitely found a new "Olivia Talent" after the last 2 Sundays at church. Last Sunday at church, my neighbor came up and asked if Olivia could give the prayer in Primary apologizing for asking last minute. Well, we said sure, and sure enough, she marched right up to the pulpit in primary and did the prayer all by herself. She blessed all her friends in primary and their families and her cousins and it was LOUD AND CLEAR!
So, this week, she had to give a talk about her family. We had tried to talk to her a little bit about what she could talk about, but she insisted that she could "handle it." So, KC went up with her and sat in the back until it was her turn. The whole time he is trying to make sure she has something relevant to say to the whole primary group. She keeps saying, "Dad, I got this, I got it. I know what I'm going to say." She steps right up to the podium and grabs the microphone to adust...it went something like this...
"The gospel lets us feel the Spirit. My name is Olivia Moultrie and today I'm going to talk about my family. My dad is a manager and he manages people. He loves basketball. My Mom cooks me dinner and I just have to love my Mommy every day! I go to school, play soccer and go to Karate and I'm learning to poop on the potty! I clean my room and help my sister. My sister Gabi, she is such a cutie pie. She can feed herself and she helps me clean up her toys but she still needs my help. Heavenly Father made it so my family can be together all the time! In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen."
I got the whole thing on video from K.C.'s phone but it messed up! SO SAD! I was crying basically the rest of Church. It is so amazing what these sweet little kids can do and remember! I guess we aren't totally screwing her up!! I had to get this written down so I never forget!
