We did it! I finally had the girls baptised. Whew. Check that one off the list...the girls are good with Jesus. Check.
I wish had a picture of the church we go to. The most beautiful stone building. They do it right in the South. I was afraid I would get dirty looks from the congregation with my sans white dresses and a walking, talking toddler. (It's a big to do here, most everyone does, the long white gown on their infants, invitations, parties, flowers galore). We kept it clean, simple, and intimate. Gracie did a fantastic job, aside from her goose egg bump on her head from hitting it in the pew. And Harte, said "No" and ran the other way when our minister went for her. But then when he had her, she actually rested her head on his shoulder for a brief sweet moment.
A random side note but here is a verse that was a deciding factor for me in naming Harte...and one that means a lot to me:
Trust in the Lord with all your HEART and lean not on your understanding. In all your ways he will make your paths straight.
Proverbs 3:5-6
