Baptism Day

Last Saturday June 1, Milo got baptized. It was such a fun day. I think I expected more for him that day; like some huge spiritual experience or to be swept off his feet with excitement about being a member of the church.  But after some thought, I realized that these sweet little 8 year olds are just beginning their spiritual journey. They are at the age of

accountability and they understand that. They also get the blessing of the Holy Ghost which can be overlooked in the importance of the event. He was happy and spent the day with family.  Just because he didn't spent the day writing in his journal and praying doesn't mean it wasn't special and memorable. Still when I ask him about it, he says this is his favorite birthday because he got 3 parties.  It was perfect weather and we really enjoyed almost all of our family being together.
