–John and C are in the next room over, where C is having a lesson from his Dad on how to tie a tie. They are giggling and working through the process together (while looking at a diagram of different knots)
–All of this is in preparation for C’s ordination today. At 12 years of age Mormon boys go through a rite that is somewhat akin to a bar mitzvah. C will be called up to the front of the church meeting and be asked to recite an Article of Faith from memory. He will officially graduate from the Children’s Meeting (Primary), and after church he will be ordained to the introductory level of the LDS Aaronic priesthood by John.
I’ll post a picture soon :)

C insisted that he tie it himself, when I offered to help. Because the tie was sort of long, he ended up having to retie it, but following my suggestions caused more problems.
My boy’s all grown up! *sniff*
