Uncle Reagan's Home

My brother returned from serving an LDS mission in Fort Worth, Texas. Because we weren't going to be in Utah for awhile, and because Reagan was starting school soon, he flew out to New York to be with us for the weekend.
I could not believe how much Reagan has grown, physically and spiritually.
He has gotten so tall, he's always been tall, but now he's even taller.
He played with the boys so well. Don't you love that he's even sitting on one of the small couches.
He took Mikey on the wave runner. He helped Todd build a bonfire. He helped out with the dishes. He kept his room cleaned with the bed made. I just couldn't believe it.
We went to church at the small little branch nearby. There were a pair of missionaries there. Reagan turned to me and said that it felt a little weird to think that last Sunday he was a missionary.
The branch is really small, but very friendly. Everyone knows and relies on each other. There isn't a nursery, and because they don't usually have more than 5 kids in Primary, I helped out in Primary, bringing William along with me. He was thrilled at this. He got to sit in the seats and be like his older brothers. He sat and listened and was very mature about his first time in Primary. Only problem is that now he has difficulty going into nursery...good thing he's turning 3 soon....bad thing is that his birthday is in January so he has to wait another long year.
After church there was a pot luck dinner at the church. We decided to stay and partake. The members were so nice. The few families that were there have been there since we've been vacationing up in New York. They are simple and wonderful people.
I was really impressed how Reagan interacted with the members. He helped one little old lady out to her car and put her walker in her trunk. He socialized with the people (if you know Reagan, you know this is not normal).
Monday morning I drove Reagan (2 hours away) to the airport. We stopped and had breakfast and had a nice time together. During the drive Reagan fell asleep for 30 minutes. Upon waking up he apologized for sleeping...man he has changed.
