A Very Special Day

Today was a very special day, Annalina was baptized! She was so excited for this day and she was so very ready to join the church. She looked beautiful in her new dress. Her sister Adrienne spoke about baptism and Katrina Doxey spoke about the Holy Ghost. Aunt Megan gave the opening prayer and Jake said the closing prayer. All of the family was there and Uncle Rich drove up from Monmouth to be with us. What a guy!! I always find it amazing the depth of understanding a child of eight can truly have. She was so calm and peaceful and seemed so much older than just eight. At one point during a talk, she turned to look at me and the intensity in her eyes touched me deeply. I love my little girl so much and am so proud of her! Leila Conser, Jaeli Jaussi, Annalina, Mallory Stott, and Jasmine White
