Ellie’s dedication

Our church does child dedication a couple times a year and this one worked out perfectly to be on Mother’s Day.  And it was even better because William’s parents were able to be here for it.   They called us up front and introduced each child.  Pam may have mispronounced her middle name (ja-kee-uh, instead of jay-kuh) but that was my fault for not making sure she knew how to say it.  They put oil  on her head and then prayed over her and us.  I cried like a baby.  She got a little Bible which had a sweet inscription in the front.  Here’s the pictures from her big day.
all dressed up: this was seriously the best one we got of both of them:  our great little family: with Elmer and Jackie (my in-laws)
