Derrick told us last week that he wants to be baptized. We are soooooo excited!! We now get to have the missionaries over each week (we're doing it for FHE....only night we don't have something going on!). He was so sweet because the night they came over for the first time he got a notebook and pen because he HAD to take good notes. I can't even explain how wonderful it is having Derrick in our home. I know he was suppose to come into our family and that it was suppose to be at this time. I love him to bits!
This kid is a scouting maniac!! HE LOVES IT!! He's passing off things right and left. He reads his Bear book every night and comes up with tons of things to pass off. At first I couldn't believe that I was back in cub scouts....more pinewood derby cars :/ But, I'm actually having a lot of fun. I love his enthusiasm!!!

That's is SO freakin' AWESOME!! It must be so fun for Derrick to have like this wonderful "insta-family"! And he was ready enough to want to be baptized this soon. Wow! He looks like you guys too! I love all the pics.
He really is part of your family. I love him...and I haven't even met him. Must be yours!
Wow, I can't believe he's already ready for that step! What a sweet and special boy he must be to recognize truth so readily and without hesitation! Keep us posted and send our love to him!
Isn't it amazing to see the blessings of the gospel work in our lives! We love you, RJAKLEB
