Chris' Baptism








Chris finally got dunked! In typical Christopher fashion, he embarrassed his mom with his "class clown character"... you know how he eats it up when he's the center of attention! I was at death's door the entire week, so I am grateful to have been able to pull off creating his"most special day" as he called it. Rick did a beautiful job, but he missed his cousins & aunts, and uncles who weren't there! I made a slide show of his first 8 years and played it while he & Rick got ready. I was so not thinking clearly that I forgot to take any pictures...the only ones I have were taken quickly by a friend of mine. Sorry family! My mom gave Chris the quilt she had made for her dad (Baby Papa), he loves it...especially because it was his! In his journal, he wrote "Today was my baptism. Now I have to repent." But then, the next day when we were talking about asking for forgiveness, he said "I wish I were 7." Out of the mouth of babes! He is a kick!!!
