There's A Right Way To Live And Be Happy...

I have to tell you that I am very proud of my daughter. She made a choice to follow her Savior and be baptized. She has been thinking about this day for many months as she patiently waited for her 8th birthday to roll-around.

I know that as she works to follow the commandments, be a good example, and follow the example of our Savior, she will be an even bigger blessing to those around her. I must say that my wife and I are very lucky to have such a wonderful daughter. I can only hope that the rest of my young family will one day make the same choice to follow their Savior when the time comes.

Baptism

For Family Home Evening, my wife did a great lesson on baptism. Since my son is getting baptised on Friday, it was very fitting. He is SO excited to become a member of the church. He had his interview with the Bishop, has decided who will be will giving the talks at his baptism, and is counting down the days.
For the lesson, my wife took each letter of the word BAPTISM, and found scriptures and stories that matched. We had a great time talking about what baptism is, why we get baptised, and how it will happen.
I am thankful that our Savior was such a great example. Even He, who was perfect, was baptised as an example for us. I am thankful my son wants to follow his example and be baptised.
