Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father
of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. –
James 1:17
I have never really spoken much about it to others but I do not think it was a coincidence that the boys were born on a Sunday...the Lord's day. I can barely even think about it without tearing up. Not one day passes when I am not beyond thankful that God blessed us with Grant and James. They are happy, healthy babies who have been watched over by Him before they were even here.
So, today we celebrated the little miracles and decided to have them baptized to give thanks to God for blessing us. We will always teach them about the importance of faith, prayer, and belief in all the good things that come from above. We know that the godparents we've chosen will also guide the boys in this way. Grant's godparents are our good friends, Angela and Marty Spieler. They are having their own little boy in June! JT's godparents will be my sister and brother-in-law.
The ceremony took place at St. Martin of Tours, where we are parishioners. Father Terry Hamilton said the mass and baptized both boys in front of our friends and family. Afterward, we celebrated at our house with a cookout. Here are some pictures from the day:
