it was the day of Zoë's baptism! It was really nice. Zoë had so many family, friends & ward members come out to support her - thank you so much to everyone that attended her baptism and confirmation! She was baptized in a dress that her Aunt Debbie made for her girls to be baptized in, so it was nice to have that sentimental touch to the day - thank you Debbie! Thank you for all of the baptism gifts, too - not at all necessary, but very much appreciated!
We sat down last night and wrote down every single person's name who attended the baptism so that Zoë would always remember there are always people around her who love her. The day would have probably been really stressful under normal circumstances, but we seemed to have a really nice spirit in our home yesterday, one that no amount of stress could penetrate. Even the fact that Leslie was assigned to speak at the baptism didn't even seem to be a worry - she just winged it (as I'm sure everyone there could tell!). Oh well - that's what they get for asking parents to speak at their own kids' baptism!
Anyhow, thanks to everyone again. It really was a great (long and really HOT) day!
