Baptism day



Our sweet Luisa was baptized last Saturday, January 31. I'm not sure I've ever seen any of my 8-year olds as excited as she was. Nervous too, but very, very excited to be baptized and confirmed. We are on the "late" schedule now, so she and Daddy did not have to be there until 11 am, while the rest of us made it by 11:30. We had two little talks, then our ward was dismissed to go first - and she was the only one in our ward, so we had the room to ourselves. She is SUCH a joy. I am so glad she is in our family. At the same time, I can hardly believe she is getting so grown-up!

I cried when I saw this post! I still remember sitting in the temple with your beautiful family having her sealed to you. She is such a sweet spirit. I absolutely cannot believe that she is old enough to be baptized!!! GIve her a big squeeze for me and tell her how proud of her I am! Miss you!
