Wow, Sunday was amazing. I knew it was going to be touching, but it was more special than I could have imagined. Sunday 4 of our girls were baptized. Our pastor is moving at the end of the month and so they asked if he could perform it before he left. It was a great day with lots of people due to the fact that we had a big picnic afterwards. I was so excited and felt I was doing great emotionally right up until my first daughter stepped into the baptistry. All of a sudden it overwhelmed me and tears flood my face. The significance of how much of a miracle was taking place welled up inside me. I was in awe of God for his saving power that took that which was hopeless and replaced it with hope that will never fail. Each of the girls reacted with such excitement and pride and it blessed a mommy's heart more than words could describe. The reality of God's love for them and the fact that it will be with them forever was made even more real by the power of the spirit when they, out of obedience to God, stood in front of many and said I am not ashamed. It was a beautiful day and the time we spent together as a family enjoying Gods creation, and each other made it one of my favorite days this year. My girls will never be the same,our family will never be the same, and for that I am blessed.:)
