Bapatism
Ethan Joseph was baptized on Sunday June 14. It was a great celebration
with Deacon Tim doing a bang up job in front of a huge crowd. We had about
twenty people there and there were five other babies and we were the SMALLEST
group. It was like a mass.
Ethan did the obligatory baby thing and spit up on Bianca and I at the
beginning and then he conked out during the actual ceremony. He was awakened,
literally and I guess spiritually, by having water poured on his head in the
baptism font. Isaac was up front with us and when Ethan was anointed with oil
he was right behind his brother. Deacon Tim passed us and then Isaac reached
down, took some of the oil off of his brother's head and...sampled it. It was
delicious apparently as he reacted favorably. When Deacon Tim noticed he
whispered to Isaac that it "tastes great on salads." Isaac then proceeded to go
back for seconds and offered me a lick. It was quite a funny moment.
Thanks to everyone that came! We had a great time at the church and the party after.
