The Moments We All Prepared with Excitement for Penelope's Baptism














In the week leading up to Penelope's Baptism, the girls, Caleb and I were busy baking and stirring, cutting, and coating cookies to serve after Penny's Baptism. Maddy and Pita made beautiful cards to share with the guests who were able to join us at Penelope's first sacrament and thereafter at her reception at the parish. We were so grateful and happy for our beautiful girl to have a cleansed soul and become a beloved daughter of God's 3 days before we all celebrated the birth of Christ. What happy hearts we all had for God's protection of Penelope and gracing her with a beautiful life, which is so-loved by us all. Thank you, Lord, for your birth in our souls daily. Please help us always to renew our Baptismal Promises and open wide the doors of our soul so that you may live in a humble dwelling.
