Can you wiggle your ears?
Did anyone else see President Monson wiggle his ears? How cool is that?

It was hilarious. A great point he made about how we are being watched as leaders.

K He brought the house down. I don't think I have laughed so hard at priesthood in a long long time.

Was this at Priesthood session? I had to miss it. I was coming home from work.

Anyway, the point of the story was how the youth look to and copy their parents and leaders.

The funny part was how President Monson seemed to get such satisfaction when "He got him" and when the father turned back to see what his son was referring to, that President Monson had his arms folded.
It was great! I'm glad I didn't miss it!

I just about died earlier today when President Monson talked about having worked with Elder Wirthlin for many years. Elder Wirthlin would call him at 8:00 PM in Germany because "it was the only time he could reach me" President Monson said.
Then President Monson revealed that these calls came at 12:00 midnight Salt Lake time. 
I just about had a coronary. It is the funniest darn thing I've ever heard President Monson say. And his delivery was perfect! I was howling.

I love prophets with a sense of humor! Pres. Hinkley was great, and I know Pres. Monson will be great too.
*not to imply that a prophet is only as good as his sense of humor*

I was so bummed that I missed Priesthood session. I'll be sure to watch it on lds.org.
