What a Special Day...

Today we not only celebrated Father's Day, but it was also Brendan's baptism. Despite the slightly rainy weather, the day was perfect. This time last year we weren't sure if Uncle Rob would be alive to baptize Brendan, but thankfully he was...it was also cause for another celebration...Uncle Rob's 71st birthday. All around it was a day filled with love and happiness. We had the baptism in a small chapel at my Uncle's home and we continued the celebration under a heated tent in the yard, it was perfect. Brendan slept during the entire mass including the actual baptism (water on his head). Thanks to Auntie Kim (a.k.a. godmother Kim) for the beautiful handmade baptism sweater, bib, socks, and blanket, he looked like an angel...we are so grateful to have two healthy and happy children, to be surrounded by such loving family, and to have had my Uncle Rob here to baptize Brendan Robert, a day we will hold in our hearts forever.
