a very special day

aileena was baptized on sept. 29, 2007. she has been preparing for this very special day for a very long time. we printed a picture of the savior being baptized with the baptismal covenants on it. we framed it, and every night she would look at them and try to memorize them. we had many fhe lessons on baptism, and aileena was so excited for this day.

















































she looks like an angel. i really believe that when our children have these very special experiences, that the veil is very thin. heaven is so close, we just forget to look for it, and feel it. but our children don't!

She really does look like an angel. Hey Holly, could you send me a coppy of what you made for Aileena?? We have been doing stuff with Zach as well, but that sounds like a great idea. Thanks!!
