Emily was baptized on Sunday. My family came down from MA & NY to spend the weekend with us. We went for a walk in Fairmount Park, watched a Red Sox game, and subjected the girls to yet another photo shoot. (The rest of the pictures are here.)
The baptism was bittersweet and beautiful, as "Uncle" Doug Green prayed over Emily and reflected on her grandfather in heaven. We were honored to have our families & close friends there to witness Emily's dedication to the Lord and to pledge to support us as we raise her in the faith. It was a joy to stand alongside our dear friends Erik & Amanda as they had their daughter Madda baptized as well. (I forgot to get a picture of us with the Groves side of the family, but they were there too of course!)
Next weekend the we will all head up to NY for my niece Rosalie's dedication! It's nice to be together so often.
