Baptism Day for Fatima

Fatima ("adopted" granddaughter to Jan and Gene) got baptized on Saturday. We are really excited for her.

JJ and Emma sang "I Know My Heavenly Father Loves Me" They are getting really good at it. It is funny that when your kids are performing how nerves you get as a parent. I was shaking so bad that I don't know if they could see the words I was holding up. They did a wonderful job, and I had nothing to be nervous about. I may not be a Von Trapp Family Singer but why can't me kids be? I think I will start hiring them out. They can sing on key and they sound so sweet. I was very proud of them.

I just love baptisms. There is a spirit in them that is amazing. I have never been to a baptism that I didn't feel something. This made me a little more excited to see my next little one get baptized.

Fatima had to be dunked two times. She forgot to tell Gene her whole (long) name. So, Gene was excited to do it again. He teased her he was going to mess up just so he could do it twice. Funny, cause he did it perfect and still got his wish. Fatima we are very excited for you. We love you.
