I don’t know about you, but I’ve never been complimented by an apostle.  (An apostle did thank me for cleaning the table he was sitting at once, but that’s a story for another day…) Today at our stake conference Elder D. Todd Christofferson spoke.  We have such a small stake here in New Jersey and there were so many children in attendance that he kindly offered to shake every child’s hand after the conference.  How exciting that my boys got to shake an apostle’s hand!  I didn’t get to do that till I was in college!  As Go Go got his turn, Elder Christofferson put his hand on his shoulder and said, “That’s quite a tie you have there.” 
(He probably wanted to say, “Wow, that shirt and tie combo is really… bright!” For some reason this Christmas shirt and tie are Go Go’s favorite. It’s like pulling teeth to get him to wear anything else!)  Go Go was not particularly bowled over by the compliment, but I felt it at least deserved a blog post.  After all, it’s not every day you get to shake an apostle’s hand.
