Covenant Child

On March 15 Blake was baptized. We had a lot of family in for the event and even my dad's deaf congregation was there. Blake did great during the baptism and didn't even cry as our pastor put water on his head.

After church we had James' family and my family over at our house for lunch. It was nice having everyone together.

Blake and Cousin Isabelle- He looks up to her already!

Its amazing to think of the responsibility that James and I have as parents to Blake to teach him of who Christ is. It is our prayer that Blake will grow to love and serve our Lord and will do so with a humble and willing heart, knowing that he is a sinner saved by the sacrifice of Christ. Our pastor already gave us the children's catechism memory book for Blake so we'll start using it as soon as we can! :)

I am so glad it worked out for Blake to be baptized while I was there! It was such a special day! I'll be praying for you and James as you raise your little boy. :)

Aw gee! The baptism photos are great! Blake looks like he's saluting Isabelle while she's holding him. :o)
