Moments before Annelise's birthday party, we took Caleb down to the river and baptized him. It was truly a beautiful, memorable moment I won't forget. I love the history behind baptism and the connection it brings to all believers. Christians have been baptized for two thousands years now- and many more Jews before them- repenting of their sins and getting themselves ready for the long-awaited Messiah. I can't imagine how beautiful it must have been to stand there on the edge of the river and see Jesus being baptized. What a sight! To Caleb: We are so very proud of you for taking this step of faith. We look forward to watching our Father transform you into His likeness with ever increasing glory...2Cor. 3:18

I also loved watching my amazing husband have the privilege of baptizing our 1st born. He is the most fabulous father!

What a moment!

Caleb said, "Whoa! That was cold!"
