On Saturday February 12, 2011 Max became a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. He was baptized and confirmed by his Dad, with help from Grandpa Scott. It was a special time. Our family was asked to do the special musical number. Max chose "Baptism", we sang and my mom played for us. The mom's (two other boys were baptized at the same time) were asked to share some special things about their boys, and share their testimonies as part of the program as well. We are so pleased Max has made this choice to open the gate to the path back to his Heavenly Father. He has made his first steps, and we are grateful to be part of his family, to help him on the path, and have him help us. Our family has the knack of never all looking good in a picture at the same time, so I have included multiple shots, hoping that each of us look good in at least one of them :)
I'm so glad you are blogging again! It's good to "see" the family and get regular updates. It sounds like this was a really special day for everyone. I'm sorry I missed it. Congratulations Max!
