Baptism Blessed

On Saturday, Fay was baptized! She was so excited to finally get to do it, since her birthday was back in May. I’m so proud of her choice to make covenant promises with Heavenly Father, and so impressed by all the ways she has prepared herself. She is truly an amazing young woman and I am beyond honored to be her mother!

I am also so grateful, in light of Fay’s baptism, for Josh worthily holding the Melchizedek Priesthood and therefore being able to perform these sacred ordinances!

Before quarantine even began, we had decided to combine Fay’s baptism and Bianca’s baby blessing. Fay was thrilled to be able to share her day with her brand new sister!

There were so many more moments I would have loved to have captured from this ultra-special day. But despite the pictures we didn’t get to take, and the Zoom call dying at the church, and the whole pandemic situation, Bianca is now blessed and Fay is now a baptized, confirmed member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, possessing the gift of the Holy Ghost as her constant companion, and we are thrilled for both our beautiful girls!

Our experience trying to get this all to happen has been a beautiful reminder to me that, though Heavenly Father does allow us to experience disappointments and setbacks, He also prepares a way for “every needful thing” to be accomplished.

Thank you to everybody who supported us by coming, or watching over Zoom (or trying to), or just thinking about Fay and Bianca! We truly appreciate all your love and support!
