Today Hannah was baptized a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I can't believe that this day has come and that my little girl has been baptized and received the Holy Ghost. What an emotionally draining day! Everything went very smoothly and could not have been better from my perspective.
Hannah, our little missionary, invited quite a few people who aren't members. Some of them were able to come. It was a wonderful experience for us, I hope it was for them as well. We also had both Grandma and Grandpa Boss and Grandma Wendy who were able to fly out for it. We are very proud of Hannah and her desire to be a member of the church, and for her desire to follow in the Savior's footsteps.
Hannah looked so beautiful in her dress. She looked so grown up...it is always hard to see your babies that way. She had to be reminded a few times that she needed to act like a lady. It's so hard to not be able to run and play whenever you want.
Side note: I got a little glimpse of myself as a mother of the bride in preparing for this baptism. I went a little overboard with invites, luncheons, pictures, how everything looked, and being just right..........all I have to say is that I will just need to remember this day and how it is not mine but hers.
