Today was such a wonderful day! Our son, Adam, was baptized! In our church, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, when children turn 8 years old they are baptized. It is very special. You can read more about what we believe on Baptism here at Mormon.org. Right after the baptism Adam was all smiles & said, "I feel so happy!" He also said he felt like he was full of energy. Adam's Dad (my wonderful husband), Ryan, baptized Adam & gave a scripture on the Holy Ghost for our part of the service. Thanks to Adam's big sister, Maddie, for playing the prelude music while we waited for Adam & Ryan to change after the baptism. We baptize by immersion so they go all the way into the water. The white clothes they are wearing are their baptismal clothes.
After the service we had a little celebration at our house with some family & friends. Thanks to all who came & helped Adam celebrate his special day! I really wish I had pictures of everyone there but only got a few, I went ahead & made this slideshow anyway :D
Congratulations Adam! Way to go, what a great day, I'm glad it all went so well, that boy is growing up, he is sooo cute.
