Baptism

It was a very important day yesterday--Nora was baptized. So far, all of our children have been baptized on important dates in our lives: Will was baptized on Mark's birthday (Aug.13), Drew on my birthday (July 27) and now Nora on our 7th wedding anniversary (Aug. 14).  We were extremely nervous about our chidren's behavior for the morning, especially since Drew has always gone to childcare and has never really attended a service yet (our church does baptism at the end of service).  I did the bribe thing and told him that if he sat quietly and listened to mommy and daddy that he could have a CARS 2 figure--"Holly Shiftwell" to be exact.  Will and Drew were perfect and Nora never made a peep.  It was a very busy and hectic day but lots of fun to spend time with family.
