A few days after getting the keys to our home Preston was Baptized as a member of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-day Saints. We chose to do it in our ward that we were moving from. We loved our ward family! It was a very special day. His sisters gave talks on baptism and the gift of the Holy Ghost and his cousins sang a primary song. It was so neat to have our family and friends there to support him. After he was confirmed he sat down and the tears started to stream down his little cheeks. He felt the spirit and it was a very tender moment as I put my arm around him and let him know to always remember those feelings because they are the whisperings of the spirit letting him know that what he did was right. After the baptism we had a nice family dinner in the cultural hall with Prestons favorite meal, Spaghetti and french bread. And another favorite of his is Chocolate sheet cake. Preston handed out chocolate covered pretzels that said
"Thank you for helping me hold to the iron rod".
I know that it takes a village to raise our kids and I am forever thankful for all of you who have influenced our family for good!!!
We are blessed.
