Kody's Baptism
Last Sunday our church had their annual baptism celebration at Meadowkirk retreat center. Every year our church has a service for those who would like to declare their faith in Jesus Christ and to be baptized. After last year's service, Kody shared with us that next year he wanted to be baptized. He accepted Christ last year at Easter time and we have had opportunities throughout this past year to discuss what baptism means. With all of our traveling and such to bring Faith home, we were late to get the announcement that the date of the baptismal service had arrived. At church two Sundays ago, they announced it at the service and afterwards Kody let his daddy know that he was ready to be baptized this year. They had a long talk about what that means to make sure that Kody was ready. He is a special child who has always had an old soul. His depth of understanding on spiritual things continually amazes us. What a joy to be his mommy!
The occasion was even more special because Kevin baptized him. Truly one of my most favorite moments in life. 
My dear friend, Heidi, made up a short picture montage of the event that is just beautiful. You can check it out at:
