Finn & Lilly's Special Day!

I, the Lord of sea and sky,



I have heard my people cry.



All who dwell in dark and sin,



My hand will save.



Here I am, Lord. Is it I, Lord?



I have heard you calling in the night.



I will go, Lord, if you lead me.



I will hold your people in my heart.



I will break their hearts of stone,



Give them hearts for love alone.



I will speak my words to them.



Whom shall I send?



Here I am, Lord. Is it I, Lord?



I have heard you calling in the night.



I will go, Lord, if you lead me,



I will hold your people in my heart.



It was a very special day for our family today. We had Finn and Lilly baptized in a special baptism ceremony. We didn't know quite what to expect since it wasn't a normal church service, but it was absolutely beautiful! When it was our turn, our family was able to come up with us to watch and take pictures. Finn went first and did great, he was so calm! I am so proud of him! I think he was proud of himself, too, and could feel God's love & spirit with him! He also kind of liked his tie and didn't want to take it off when we got home! ;) Lilly was next...she cried some when she put the water over her head, but otherwise did great. She fell asleep in my arms right afterwards. She looked so pretty in her dress, I hated to take it off of her. She wore my cross necklace that my grandfather gave me when I was a baby, and she has enough hair that I got a bow in! Loved it...I want to buy one in every color now!!! Our house was filled with peace tonight, and I am feeling so thankful for our healthy babies, our amazing church, and our wonderful, loving families! Ryan's family was able to be there with us today, and Grandma & Papa & the rest of our family that couldn't be there - you were missed! Love you all so much!
