Payton's First Talk!

This is Payton's self portrait he took. :)

So on Sunday, Payton gave his first ever talk in primary. I of course was nervous, I don't think I ever gave a talk in primary really, meaning my mom almost always had to do the talking for me cuz' I would just freeze. Payton so outshined me, Some of the kids were actually complaining because he was talking to LOUD into the myke. Payton of course loved it, and wants to do it again soon, he's left me wondering- "where did this alien come from?"

*note- I am very very glad that he isn't shy, what a blessing for him in in his life, my prayers were answered! And since shyness is a very debatable subject even between me and my husband, I say I don't know if your born with it or if it's from experiences all I know is that for me shyness is trying to train my body to react differently than it wants to, Talking to people my body goes into fight, flight, hide mode and I really can't think clearly or be myself it seems.

  2. So fun! I remember doing my first talk in primary... and how nervous i was. I don't mind being 1 on 1 with people... or groups or whatever, but talking at church STILL freaks me out. In fact i am pretty sure they were trying to get me talk last sunday... and i didn't call back! and i sometimes avoid people from high school... just because i am nervous... so silly!
