He speaks!

Richard gave his first talk today in primary. I was so worried he'd not say a word once it was his turn and that I would end up giving his talk. Richard is just so timid. We've practiced his talk several times a day for the past week or so to make him as comfortable as possible with what he had to say. He could say it by himself when he wanted to. So, today I went in to primary to help him. He was sitting on a chair at the front of the room and he got a huge smile on his face and waved when he saw me. When it was his turn, I started to walk up and he got on the podium. I whispered what he had to say just in case he forgot. However, he said it all and said it into the microphone! I don't know how well people could understand him, but who cares?! He gave his talk! I was so proud of him and he seemed pretty proud of himself.
