Old Folks Home

Chet has been administering the sacrament at an old folks home for a while now. He is really good to take the boys on different things when doing his calling. He takes them to the church while he has his early morning meetings and they set up chairs. He takes them to every move and makes them help where they can. They love to tag along, and I love having a few less kids while he's gone, AND I love that they are learning to serve. It doesn't bother them, for the most part, when Chet leaves, because they know it's just what we do as a family, and we sustain him. Well, Cars asked Chet if he could go with him to the meeting at the old folks home. It was an instant hit! Not by the old people, but by Cars. He does not miss a week. If Chet has another leader go for him, Cars is mad. He came home and announced to me that he WOULD be applying as soon as he is old enough to work there. He told me that he CANNOT wait until he is 12 and can pass the sacrament, especially there. I asked him why and he told me that some of the people cannot take the sacrament themselves and that you get to help them eat and drink. He loves to talk to all of them and help them where he can. Chet says that he shakes everyones hand, and he even said the closing prayer for their sacrament meeting the other day. We took the boys to a drop in daycare place in Billings so we could go to the temple, and upon picking them up Cars informs us that it was the most boring place EVER! Chet says, "It's about as fun as an old folks home huh?" Cars says, "No! That place is AWESOME! This place sucks!" He is just in love with the place. He loves the old people! He is such a great caretaker. I love that about him!!! And I am curious to see if he really does work there. I told him that he can start volunteering there if he wants soon, and he is really excited. The other boys think it stinks and that the people are weird, and they don't like it so much. Not Cars. He would go every day if we took him!
