I sure do love Derek. I have been doing new kinds of shifts at work so that I can be home more with the kids but that means that I do a type of swing shift, or night shift and I come home in the morning tired. When I come home, I notice that Derek, without my even asking him, has turned my bed down so that I can get a little nap in before anyone wakes up. He is so thoughtful. I am so blessed to have him as a son.
It has been getting very hot here as usual this summer. I have asked Derek on several occasions if he would like me to take him to church when he has to go early in the middle of the day and it is very hot and he is in his suit. His answer has impressed me as being very spiritually mature for his age. He tells me that it's ok, he wants to walk because he wants to get used to walking outside with his suit on in heat in anticipation for wherever he is sent on his mission.
He is such a great example of the scripture of small and simple things becoming great. He truly is a great young man and I love him very much!
