We rounded out the summer with Sloane's baptism. We had Sloane baptized at First Church, in Mission Valley, the church Mommy grew up in. It was very special being back there with our daughter and welcoming her into the community.
Sloane was very unsure about being handed over to the Pastor...but there were no tears!
Here she is being baptized...with each splash of water she said "thank you" out loud to the pastor!

What a wonderful ceremony. You looked beautiful in your pretty white dress. Everyone in the church had to be impressed with how you handled things and especially impressed with your good manners, "Thank you".
ReplyDeleteSloane, you were so full of grace at the baptism. Your "thank you's" were so sweet and your presence so calm and accepting. What a beautiful, loving girl!!
