Grace's baptism was today. It was a really special day. Her Papa helped hold her in the font so that Daddy could free up his arm to perform the ordinance. Grace and Hannah and Claire and Olivia sang "When I Am Baptized", featuring Grace on solo the second verse. It was so precious, so sweet, even with Olivia putting her mouth on the microphone.Speaking of Olivia, holy mackanoly, that kid is going to be the death of me. We made the mistake of sitting in the front row in the chapel for Grace to be right up front. Olivia thought all that room in front of us demanded a performance, which she did her best to give us, by dancing, spinning, and frog jumping. And that was all when she wasn't simply running amok. But it was all worth it in the end. And by the way, didn't I make a pretty cake? It tasted as good as it looked, too! Margaret was too precious enjoying her cupcake. Mmmmmm....
Thank you to all the family and friends who joined us today. I guess I didn't get pictures of everyone, but I really appreciate all the love and support shown to Grace today.
