Today my wonderful son Parker Dean was baptised by his own Daddy! What an AWESOME experience! I was smiling the whole time and so was Parker. He looked so handsome in his black suite and his red backpack full of the things he would need. Just before he went to the church he opened a gift from the primary it was a white towel embroidered with 'Parker 2011'. What a great gift.
Afterwards we had invited friends and family to a small dinner in honor of my little man.
The kids ate mostly the dessert, but we enjoyed having people together to celebrate. Thanks to all of you who came.
At home Parker was finally able to open a gift from all of us, his very own scriptures. They are blue with silver pages with his name engraved on the front. He even has his own scripture case for them too. Grandma Bullock also got him a special card, a bookmark, and a cute tie tack. It's a soccer ball with 'CTR' across the top.
He LOVES his scriptures! He carried them around everywhere. He kept opening them, reading a few versus here and there, and just holding them close to him. I loved watching him. He was a little sad later to learn his name had been misspelled and Grandma was going to have to take them and get it fixed. But Grandma is such a wonderful lady she had them back to him sooo fast, he hardly had time to miss them, thank you Grandma!
This is how I find him when he has his scriptures.
