Her Choice

We just received Skyla's baptism packet in the mail and it was breathtaking to open.  In the busy of the day I opened this one envelope and was reminded of everything so precious.  Our God and our family and our friends.  The scanned quality isn't the greatest, but you get the idea.

Skyla had the pleasure of being baptized by not only a great man,  our children's pastor Joe McAlpine, but also the father of one of her closest friends and a good friend himself.  It made it all that much more memorable.  Such a beautiful moment as she talks to Joe right before the baptism.
It is official!  She will carry this for the rest of her life as a reminder of this day.

THIS was the most heartwarming though.  I was so excited to see that some kind person took an extra picture and added it in there for us.  The moment right after she was baptized.  Enveloping daddy in a sopping wet bear hug, radiating smile on her face and me so proud of our first born little girl.  I love this picture and all it embraces about the day, our faith and our family.


This was one of those moments that we get so few of where it seems no one exists on earth except for just the three of us and the God that blessed us with each other.  

Good day, Great memories..

Quite possibly the most precious picture I've seen in a long time. Blessings.
