Dane's Baptism

So hard to believe that our sweet little Dane is of the age for baptism! He has always been an incredible example to me of a devoted follower of Jesus Christ.  The little guy reads his scriptures and says his prayers daily;  he treats everyone he meets with kindness and has such a gentle way about him.  He tries so hard to choose the right- to include and love others.  So baptism was a very natural step!

We enjoyed having my parents in town for the big day!  And Grandma, Aunt Stacy and Uncle Troy.  Grandpa was sick, unfortunately! We missed having him here to share in the day.  We enjoyed a yummy little luncheon with Dane's favorite dessert- grasshopper pie before heading to the church.  Poor Dane was sick with a fever/sore throat!  Evelyn was sick as well and it was such a bummer, as she was scheduled to sing at the baptism, but could barely speak, let alone sing due to her sore throat.
All this being said, it was still a very special, very sweet day and one that will always remain dear to me... and I hope dear to Dane.  I certainly hope he felt of Heavenly Father's love for him and of his family's love for him.  He is something else-- such a unique and wonderful person.  I know without a doubt that he is destined for amazing things and I feel it an honor to be his mother.
