Even though it wasn't what was planned, Sarah's baptism was absolutely beautiful, not only because of the ceremony but because of the amazing people that were there with us to help celebrate such a wonderful day. Her gown was made for and worn by her great-grandfather back in 1913. She wore the rosary I carried in my bouquet when I married Chris, the beautiful cross given to her by Aunt Lori and Uncle Brian, Amelia and Linda, an aquamarine and diamond necklace given to her by her Grandma and Pop-Pop and a Blessed Mother pin. We lit the same baptism candle that was used during my baptism 39 years ago.

A beautiful day!
