Addison was baptised yesterday in the St. Helen Chapel by the same Deacon that married Charles and I. It turned out to be a very special day. Charles and I felt so blessed when we saw all of our friends and family there to support Addison in her passage into the Catholic Church. We never in a million years expected as many people to come that actually did. The chapel was so full we had to get folding chairs so everyone could sit down! Deacon Joe made it extra special for us and Addison was in happy spirits the whole day. I can't even put into words how touched we were by every one's presence, it really touched our hearts. Thank you!
My sister Clare is officially Addison's Godmother and we are so thankful she was happily willing to take on that responsibility. We are confident that if we ever slack off on our Christian duties she will pick up our slack!
The ceremony was followed by a delicious brunch at my parents house. That was a huge success too! I think we all ate enough food to last a week but it was very tasty. Grandaddy and Mimi were very generous in opening their house up to host the party, they should get a gold medal in being the best host and hostess ever!!! Grandmommy, Pa, Aunt Brett, Aunt Charlotte and Uncle Adam all made the trip down for the baptism too. Addy just loved all the attention from all her family and friends! All in all it was a marvelous day and it really re-affirmed just how blessed we all are to be surrounded by such a wonderful group of people.
