Dedicated

Today was one of my favorite Daphne days so far.

I imagine that everyone wants to know that their kids are loved. So when you have a day where people are there because they want to be, not because they have to fulfill an obligation; when you physically watch as a support system develops for your baby...well, you see love.

It makes for a really great day.

We had Daphne's baby dedication at church this morning, and Daphne packed the house with people who love her. We missed the many out of towners who couldn't make it, but had everyone shown up we may have had to rent that big new Cowboys stadium to hold them all. That would have been very inconvenient and far away, although Daphne would have looked great with her face plastered on their video screen.



























We had a roaring party at our house afterward, which Daphne slept through. She woke up just in time to open a few gifts.



















She LOVED this Bible Prayers book from the Bubna's. Seriously, she was bouncing up and down in my lap while looking at it.



















So thank you to everyone who loves our little girl. It means a lot.

Oh goodness, that's the best feeling in the world! I'm so glad that Daphne is so well loved and that you guys are so well supported. And we've been looking for a good baby's bible - I'll have to check that one out!
