Hayden's friendship

I still have several activities that I need to blog, but I really wanted to write about Hayden tonight. Last Monday, Mike taught a Family Home Evening lesson on friendship, and then he encouraged us to go out and be friends to others. Hayden made a chart, and we have been reporting each night at dinner what we did that day that was friendly. Tonight before bed Hayden told me of two times, once on the bus and once at recess, when he went up to a classmates that no one was talking to and became their friend. That is something that is out of his comfort zone, but he has such a good heart and wants so much to exemplify Jesus that he is willing to be uncomfortable. I think he will be a good missionary someday. I'm so grateful he is my oldest and sets such a good example for the younger two.
