One of the boyscouts in our ward arranged for a magician to come to the church and put on a show for a group of mentally disabled people and anyone in the ward who wanted to come. Well, Richard found out who the magician was, he is famous. He has won magician contests in Vegas and traveled the world by requests to do shows. After his show last night he was off to Vegas by another request to come do a show. The crazy thing is that we knew this kid in our ward when we lived in Mountain View and had no idea!!!! He is only 18 years old and will graduate with his bachelors degree from BYU before leaving on his mission. He belongs to a large family and the only way he could do all of this is because his wonderful mother home schools all of them. She is an amazing woman! It was a VERY fun, incredible show and the boys had a blast! They both received signed cards and have been performing magic tricks all morning! I'm grateful for the wonderful example this great young man is to my boys!

How cool! What a great example of home schooling turning out to be just the thing for that child to bloom and have opportunities.
It was CJ Walker! Is he not amazing?! I had no clue that he had such talent!
