Megan's Baptism

What do you get when you have a house full of 16 adults and 12 kids ages 7 and under? A busy house full of lots of love to celebrate Megan's baptism. We were lucky enough to have everyone from both of our families attend. Megan was baptized during mass on Sunday morning and the service was beautiful. Megan did not make a peep during the entire mass, even when the priest put the holy water on her head. She actually smiled right afterward. With all those kids in church, you would think it could be quite the spectacle, but everyone was SO good! Throughout the service, I found myself getting teary. When I looked down at our sweet baby girl sleeping in my arms in her white gown, I was overcome with emotion at the beauty of her life and how blessed we are to have two amazing daughters. I also looked back at the three full pews of our family and again realized how lucky we are to have so many people who love us and are here for us. After mass, we all came back to our house for lunch. The weather cooperated enough that all the kids were able to get out and play a little, too. Megan was also showered with many thoughtful gifts to celebrate her baptism. We feel so blessed.
