Maddy's Blessing

Today we had Madeline's baby blessing and what an amazing day it was.  Both my mom and dad where here for it – the Spirit was so strong during the Sacrament Meeting and when Mitch gave his blessing.  It was so powerful to hear him bless our baby girl.  He blessed her to listen to her mother as I teach her, that she might have good friends, (Mitch got choked up as he said this and mentioned the great friends that he has had throughout his life and that were standing in the circle with him), to keep herself righteous and have friends that will help her in doing this, to learn all that she can and grow in education, to find a righteous man to take her to the temple, to understand and keep her covenants, to read the scriptures everyday, to love them and apply them to her life, to stay close to her grandparents and follow their teachings; then he gave an amazing talk – about lessons that we can learn from children (specifically his nephews): to not be offended, be more grateful, be more compassionate and be more obedient.



We love you Madeline and pray every day that you will grow
to know how much Heavenly Father loves you.
