Big Day

Saturday was a Big Day round these here parts. And not just because we dressed up in costumes and went door to door begging for candy. (Photos coming tomorrow!) It was a Big Day because there was an event that touches upon someone's eternity.

My son Sean was baptized into Christ on Saturday morning. My dad took his confession of faith. Then he baptized him in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

My mother provided hugs while Sean beamed.

I took pictures and tried not to have a big ugly cry and melt into a puddle of goo.

Then later that evening there was candy.

Yes, there was much rejoicing here on Earth and in Heaven above. How could there not be?
