May the Lord give His angel charge over you, to guide you in all your ways. Psalm 91:11
Today is Abby’s Christening day. It is early in the morning, and the sun is just starting to peep up into the sky, and light up this glorious day. We just can’t wait for this day to begin, and enjoy this very special day with our precious Daughter.
Rev. Mark will be Christening Abby today, and we are so very happy about that. He married Bill and I, and has been a tremendous source of support and inspiration since meeting him. We feel very blessed to have him in our church and our lives.
I was here looking at Abby this morning thinking what a shame it is that she won’t remember today. Then I thought about all of the pictures and the video she will someday see. She’ll know how loved she is, and how many of her family and friends were there to witness such a wonderful moment for her.
Abby has the best Godparents chosen for her- Nicole and Tim. Nicole was the maid of honour in our wedding, and Tim was one of Billy’s Groomsmen. They are fantastic people, and people we hope Abby will attempt to emulate in her life. We feel that we really have gotten this one right, and we are so thankful to have both of them as such an inspirational part of Abby’s life. Abby is truly blessed with many wonderful role models in her life- especially her surrogate Aunties- you know who you are.
So, I send good thoughts out into the universe this morning for blessings for my Daughter and prayers that God will watch over her forever. I pray that he will guide her always, and help her understand that when life doesn’t quite work out as we plan, there is always a lesson behind it.
I love you Abby.
Many blessing to Abby. Just saw the photos and witnessed the love. The day my children were baptized, I felt a peace within me, knowing the reconnection was made. They are so close to God when they arrive you can barely believe they are all yours. The baptism is like a new starting point. Like you say to God, thank you, may I keep her, and God says, yes you may, with my blessing.
Bask in the glory!
