Still more to learn

I consider my self pretty strong in the Church and have a testimony of the gospel but today I felt like that kid from the RM. If you have not seen it you should. The kid is seating in the living room of this girl he just met and her dad is a General Authority and he said how there are so many we need a center full. Well today I was at Dick Market in Bountiful with Talia and Linnea and we had all our items and then went to check out and I turned to Talia and started talking about school and how her day had gone. A very nice man wearing a suit was in front of us and smiled and looked at us, just them a checker said Elder Eyring I can help you on the next stand. It was Elder Eyring and I did not realized who he was. I felt so silly, he decline the help and ask that he help me instead. Chris said I need to watch the BYU channel more and pay attention during conference. I agree since it is not the first time I have done that. : ) I saw Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf at costco but I knew who he was.

A cute story. You will always know him now and have a nice memory to go along with it.

That is funny! Do you ever watch this thing called General Conference? J/K that is cool that you saw him! I miss bountiful. Maybe someday we can move back.

That's awesome! I don't know if I would have recognized him either, because I wouldn't expect to see him.

How neat to live in an area where you can see General Authorities at the store or on the street. Thanks for sharing...it was funny. And I think it's neat that he let you get helped before him.
