blessing day

i LOVE baby blessing day!

i love the spirit that lingers while you dress your little baby in white. i love the knowledge that my Father in Heaven loves me enough to trust me with His child for a time. i am always mindful of my hubby who loathes speaking in public, but takes pride in the Priesthood he holds and blesses our children. i love remembering all the little promises and blessings that await my little boy as he grows up. i am always strengthened and motivated to be a better mother and teacher when i know a lot depends on me. being a mother is a great blessing and challenge that i try and enjoy a little more everyday.

sadly, i was so caught up in the moment and loving visiting with family & friends in our new house that i completely forgot to take any pictures. lucky for me, i had these pictures taken just after the big day or there would be no record of the adorable outfit Nana "D" whipped up. i just love my little man--white cords, sweater vest & let's not forget the little beret.
