Willow got Baptized



Dave baptized Willow last weekend and we are as proud as we could be. She is quite an amazing young lady. I don't think I could capture what I really feel about her. Sniff. Sniff. I adore her. She is the lovliest parts of me... (and Dave) NO wonder these little spirits are so valiant. So beautiful. So fair. I wish for her all the blessings the eternities have to offer.

She is a lovely girl - inside & out. I still picture her as a little Sunbeam. I remember how big I thought Bethany was when she graduated from nursery to primary. & now they're all grown up & accountable! Tell her congrats & hi from us. (Like she even remembers who we are!) Thanks for the sweet thoughts from her mom.

Wow, isn't that such a big milestone!! I remember when my daughter got baptized and I realized that what all those older ladies told me was oh so true... "treasure them now dearie cuz it goes by before you know it!" I found myself wondering if I'd taught her everything I should cuz now it was basically a little late if I hadn't!

On the other hand, it's so fun to achieve that first big milestone on the way to eternity.

Congratulations!!
