I'M SURE HE CAN'T REMEMBER A TIME WHEN THERE WERE JUST 3 KIDS BUT HE IS SUCH A GREAT HELP TO HIS PARENTS AND SO GOOD WITH THE LITTLES. HE CALLS THEM "DIBBLES".
WHEN HE WAS A "LITTLE" AT THE LOGAN TEMPLE. HIS DAD IS THE YOUNG MEN'S PRES. AND DIDN'T HAVE A CAR FULL TO TAKE TO THE TEMPLE A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO AND HYRUM HAPPILY WENT.
HYRUM WAS THE BEST BABY.....HE WAS ALWAYS HAPPY. I HAD NEVER SEEN A BABY LIKE THAT BEFORE.
WHEN THIS PICTURE WAS TAKEN....HYRUM HAD NO IDEA HE WOULD SOON LIVE NEAR LAGOON. HE HAS HAD TO LEARN TO ROLL WITH A LOT OF PUNCHES WITH HIS HEALTH AND WITH THEIR MANY MOVES. I TRULY ADMIRE HIM AND HIS POSITIVE ATTITUDE.
HYRUM LOVES BABIES.....I LOVE THAT!
HE LOVES HIS SIBLINGS! I LOVE THAT!!
WE LOVE IT THAT HE LOVES TO COME TO BEAVER AND SEE THE PLACES THAT GRANDPY AND GREAT GRANDPA GREW UP!
WE LOVE THAT HE LOVES HIS COUSINS AND THEY LOVE HIM!
WE LOVE THAT HE LOVES SUNDAYS IN BEAVER!
...AND MORE COUSINS....
......AND PLAYING BASKETBALL WHEREVER AND WITH WHOEVER!
AND HIS SMILE...
,,,AND HAVING COUSINS HIS OWN AGE!!!
HE LOVES US AND WE LLOOOVVEEEEEE HIM! HE WAS JUST MADE THE TEACHERS QUORUM PRES. NOW HE AND JAKE ARE BOTH THE PRESIDENTS!
AND MOSTLY....HE LOVES HIS FAMILY AND WE ALL LOVE HIM!!! (AND SPENCER TOO....WHERE IS HE???)
IT WAS FUN DOING THIS INTERVIEW BECAUSE I TALK TO HYRUM ENOUGH THAT I KNEW A LOT OF WHAT HE WOULD ANSWER BUT I DID LEARN A FEW THINGS!

WHAT HE WANTS TO DO WHEN HE GROWS UP : HE CHANGED....BUSINESS
WHATEVER HE DOES HE'LL BE GREAT
IF HE WERE INVISIBLE HE WOULD PLAY BASKETBALL
HE IS PROUD OF HIS WORK ETHIC
IF HE WERE THE PRESIDENT HE WOULD LOOK FOR WAYS TO FIND PEACE
HE IS AFRAID TO FAIL....THAT WAS JAKE'S ANSWER...I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S THE AGE OF JUST THE PERSONALITIES.
SOMETHING HE DOES WELL: FOCUSES ON GOALS
A GOOD FRIEND IS SOMEONE WHO STANDS WITH YOU AND YOU STAND UP FOR.
THERE IS NO WAY HE WOULD CHOOSE ANOTHER NAME AND I KNEW THAT.
IT HE COULD GO ON A VACATION HE WOULD GO TO THE CARRIBEAN
HIS FAVORITE THING TO DO WITH HIS MOM AND DAD IS TO TALK TO THEM AND SPEND TIME WITH THEM.
THAT LAST ANSWER TELLS YOU SO MUCH ABOUT HYRUM. HOW MANY 15 YEAR OLD BOYS LOVE TO TALK TO THEIR PARENTS AND SPEND TIME WITH THEM. WHEN HE TALKS TO ME ON THE PHONE OR IN PERSON I CAN ALSO SENSE THAT HE IS NOT DOING IT OUT OF AN OBLIGATION....BUT HE LIKES TO TALK TO ME. THAT MELTS MY HEART AND MAKES ME REALIZE HOW BLESSED I AM TO HAVE HIM IN OUR FAMILY.HYRUM NEVER TALKS ABOUT THE MANY...MANY....DRS. HE HAS BEEN TO AND THE TIME HE HAS FELT SO SICK. HE NEVER TALKS ABOUT THE HEALTH ISSUES HE DEALS WITH. HE WOULDN'T BE NORMAL IF HE DIDN'T ASK HIMSELF WHY HE HAS TO GO THROUGH THIS, BUT HE HAS NEVER HAD ANY SELF PITY. WE SIT DOWN TO EAT AND HE CAN'T EAT MORE THAN HALF OF THE THINGS. HE CAN'T EAT THE TREATS THEY GIVE AT CHURCH AND SCHOOL....OR PARTIES. ONE WEEK WHEN HE WAS HERE ON SUNDAY THEY HAD ICE CREAM BARS IN SUNDAY SCHOOL AND HE KEEPS IT SO LOW KEY AS HE DOESN'T TAKE ANY. TO SAY HE IS MATURE BEYOND HIS YEARS IS A HUGE UNDERSTATEMENT.
HE WAS THE FIRST TO FINISH GRANDPY'S CHALLENGE TO CIRCLE ALL THE NAMES FOR JESUS AS HE READ THE BOOK OF MORMON. I GAIN INSIGHTS FROM HIM AS WE TALK ABOUT SCRIPTURES. LIKE I SAID.....WHATEVER HE DOES HE WILL BE FANTASTIC. HE NEVER HAS TO BE REMINDED TO DO HIS HOMEWORK AND HE NEVER BRAGS ABOUT THE UNBELIEVABLE SCORES HE HAS GOTTEN ON TESTS. IF I EVER GROW UP I WANT TO BE JUST LIKE HIM. EXCEPT FOR ONE THING....HE IS A LITTLE HARD ON HIMSELF. WE LOVE YOU AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE PERFECT!!!
HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY HYRUM. WE LOVE YOU FOR ETERNITY AND BACK AND WE KNOW YOUR BIRTHDAY IS GOING TO BE AWESOME!!!
