The music chairman in our ward, Kim Larsen, asked Chuck and I to sing in church a few weeks ago so we were on the schedule for August 24th. We decided that we should sing what we know. Since we are the nursery leaders we sang a medley of primary songs. We chose the ones that we sing in nursery starting with Here We Are Together. In nursery we sing the names of all the kids and they love it. The next was Quickly I'll Obey, then When Were Helping, I Am A Child Of God, and we ended with Don't Ever Forget To Pray because we always close singing time in nursery with that one.
Now if you have ever been in an LDS Sacrament meeting you know there are a lot of little kids and it can be kind of noisy at times. When we started to sing every little person stopped making noise, of course most of them are in our nursery class, and it suddenly became very quiet. It was quite to reverent little phenomenon.
Barbara Wallace played for us and wrote the transitions between the songs, while Chuck harmonized and I sang the melody. That is the first time we have ever sung in a church meeting and it wasn't even a bit scary. Actually it we both really enjoyed singing together.

That was so special and it was funny to look around at all of the nursery kids just staring up at you and Chuck. Thank you so much for putting so much love, time, and effort into teaching our litte ones.
You guys did an awesome job! Your talks were awesome (Di, your talk especially touched me). We (especially Talvyn) enjoyed the musical number. You have a ton of nursery kids and you guys are doing a great job with them.
