Baptism

Jacob's baptism was a special day. He has been so excited to turn eight and be baptised. I got really teary eyed when he came out of the restroom dressed in white excited to give grandmas and grandpa, aunts and uncle, cousins and his family hugs. He was very happy. The opening song sung was I am a Child of God. "...Lead me, guide me, walk beside me. Help me find the way. Teach me all that I must know to live with Him someday." Those words were so strong to me as I sat next to Jacob listening to him sing them.

 

 

Is their pose not just precious!! (Jacob, Michael and cousin Katie.)

What a special day! I can't believe you have one old enough to be baptized...mainly because that means I could have one that old. Wow! I am so impressed with you. Your home-schooling seems to be going so well and your kids just seem so well-rounded. You're doing a great job!

And, little Sarah is getting so big! I loved your update on her. It's crazy how fast they grow.
