Seth's Baptism

It has become a tradition in our family for the children to be baptized in Arkansas with Ben's side of the family.  Seth turned eight in June and planned to be baptized while we were on our annual trip to Arkansas in July.  It was a special day for all of us.  I can't believe we have three children who are now baptized!

I Like My Birthdays

I like my birthdays every one 

each brings a great joy to me

 but I can't wait until I'm eight 

for then I'll be baptized you see.

To be baptized as Jesus was

by one who holds the priesthood true

and thus obey God's holy laws 

is just the thing I want to do.

When hands are placed upon my head

then I'll receive the Holy Ghost

and if I listen and obey 

I'll have the blessing I need most.

The drive to the chapel is 35 minutes just enough time to take a nap before his baptism!

Great-grandmother (GG), Seth, and Grandmother 

Our little missionary!  GG and Grandmother gave Seth his own set of scriptures and Aunt Sarah gave him his own hymn book.  He is ready for his mission now!  :)

I love this picture of Seth and Zeddie.  In eight years Seth will be old enough to baptize Zeddie - wouldn't that be neat?
