Raegan, today you were baptized. It was beautiful to watch. We decided to do it when you were still young because we learned from when we baptized your brother. He was 8 months and very very talkative. You did so well. In fact I would say you slept during most of the ceremony. You were dressed so beautifully. You had your pearl and cross bracelet that your Grandma Judy bought for you, light pink bloomers, your Mary Jane socks, and of course your dress that I made from my wedding dress. I didn't do a perfect job but it was my very first article of clothing that I've ever made completely from scratch and I must say I was very pleased with how it came out. Simple. Beautiful. And simple. We are so excited to teach you about our faith. Today you were born again. You will have many special days, like your sweet 16, graduation day, your wedding day, the birth of your children, etc..I am just so happy that we were able to celebrate this joyous occasion with you.
