Baby Dedication

Sunday, September 20, 2009

Today Logan and Charlotte were dedicated to the Lord. We were blessed to have many family members and friends support us by attending the dedication. Our church does baby dedications separate from the regular services. It was nice because there was time to focus on each family. There was even a slide show with photos of all of the children being dedicated. The babies did well during the ceremony. We were worried that Logan might cry when the pastor held him, but Logan did great! Logan decided to play with the pastor's face while the pastor prayed. Charlotte, our paper-lover, chewed on the pastor's notes.

We chose a life verse for our children, which was read during the ceremony:

"Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. The second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself."
Matthew 22:37-39

After the ceremony, we gathered at Kevin's parent's home for a late lunch. We ate yummy carnitas. We also found time to take some family pictures. Mom and Dad, thanks so much for opening your home to us!
