Ford was baptized at our church on Sunday morning. This, just as it was with Olivia, is one of the biggest days in Ford's life. Hays and I dedicated him to the church. This baptism did not symbolize that he is a believer in the Lord or that he will go to heaven because of this baptism. On this day, we (Hays and I) made the promise to raise him in a Christian home with the sincere hope that one day he will become a believer and have a personal relationship with our Lord. We made the commitment to live our lives as an example for Ford and pray for him fervently daily. God has blessed us with such a precious gift and we love him more than anything in this world but God loves him even more than that. We pray that he will know that love one day.
Precious baby boy in the same dress that his dad and sister was baptized in.
What a special time for me and Hays.
He slept the whole time. Even as Steve was putting water on his head.
We were so blessed to have many friends and family there to support us.
This is so great! So exciting, I hate that I wasn't at home to see his baptism!
