What a special weekend it was for George! He is FINALLY Baptised! He was supposed to be Baptised on May 31st but Mama was in the Hospital so we had to cancel. August 30th is the day that he became an official child of God!
To start off, we will talk about me since the rest of the day is really about George. I looked really beautiful in my pretty white dress. I got to sit in church for the whole time and did not go to the nursery. Everyone was proud of how well I did. Between you and me, I was quiet because I ate the entire time in church!
George has three Godparents, Lee, Brian and Weldon. They were so very proud of him. Just like with Mr Warren and Tantie for me, if he ever has a problem or needs advice, he can always go to them. He did great during the entire ceremony. He actually slept through most of it until the water on the head part. Papa videoed the ceremony for us and now we will always have it to see not just in our hearts.
Mama and Lee have been friends since birth and Weldon since preschool. I think that it is neat that she is still friends with them after all of these years and that George and I will never remember a time without them. They will be just like our parents only they will not have to discipline.
Mr Russell is the best Priest. He is so caring and truly shows interest in our parish. We feel very lucky to have him in our lives.
Here is everyone that came for George's big day. As you can see, we had a great turnout. It was so special to have so many there to witness one of the most important times in his spiritual life.
As usual, Rob helped open the gifts. He is so animated when he opens anything! We all say that he went to the Skinner School of Gift Opening and graduated with an A+. He says OOOh with everything that he opens, even cards! George received so many wonderful gifts and we are very thankful!
Before everyone left, it was picture time for all of the Grandchildren. It is so hard to get everyone to cooperate. The babies are not really interested in sitting on the couch for an extended period of time but give us a couple of years! All in all, the day was beautiful and we are so blessed to have George in our lives. Thank you God for all of our blessings, Amen.
