blessing...

On December 29th, our family gathered in our home to participate in Jase's blessing. BJ, assisted by Grandpa Gary, Grandpa Dave, Eric, Brett, Jared, Bri, and Brother D'Addabbo, gave him a name and a blessing. BJ blessed him that his body would grow healthy and strong. That he would always know and feel how grateful we are to have him in our family. That he would seek out spiritual things and seek the Lord to direct him in his life. To serve a faithful mission and find a wife to take to the temple to be sealed for time and all eternity. To follow the leaders of the church to know what direction to take to make the best decisions in life. And finally, that he would follow the examples of his sisters.
It was such a neat experience to have the spirit in our home as worthy priesthood holders held my sweet baby and pronounced this blessing upon him. I am thankful for BJ, for the testimony that he has and that he is worthy to bless our children.

I am so in love with this sweet baby and so thankful that he came to our family!
