Order of succession

Sunday morning we got a phone call. Never a good thing in our house. It was Brother O. the Second Councilor in our Bishopric. He wanted to talk to Linc. He said that since the Bishop and the First Councilor were gone and the High Priest Group Leader was talking and the Elders Quorum president needed to be in the audience with his family (he has a mentally disabled kid) He needed the Teachers Quorum president (Linc) to sit beside him and help preside in the meeting. That meant that Linc sat beside the Second Councilor during the whole meeting and even got to run the speaker button and the podium height adjustment. How many fifteen year-oldes can say they helped preside at their church?

Yahoo! Way to go, Linc! It wouldn't surprise me if this is a foreshadowing of Linc's future.

I talked on the phone with Mom Sunday and she told me about Lincs turn to be on the stand and presiding at Sacrament Meeting and how he looked like he belonged there. She said she thought that he would be spending many years in that very spot, so he had better get used to it.

I wish I could have been at Sacrament meeting to watch Linc sitting up front by the 2nd Counselor. That is awesome that he was asked to help preside! I would have been smiling the whole time because this wandering grandma is so happy that he is such a terrifically good, smart, handsome, dedicated, faithful grandson.
