Lizzie's Baptism Day

Today, I have finally had a chance to go through all the letters and cards that were given to Lizzie on her baptism day, and I'm so overwhelmed with the sweet words people wrote to her! They are all treasures.

Some people wrote poems to Lizzie to remember her day:

We all love to hear when you sing,
Your voice is so clear that it rings.
Your face shines so bright
With a baptism light.
Don't forget - on your finger's a string!
--Grandma Vickie

You were baptized today, We have seen
how much that moment can mean.
Everyone on that day
has their sins washed away,
but you are three times as clean!
--Fred and Vicki Voros

(Lizzie had to get baptized 3 times since hands and dress kept popping out of the water!)

Beautiful - inside and out
Affectionate - with family and friends
Patient - with yourself and others
Truthful - in all you say and do
Inquisitive - in learning new things
Sympathetic - to those in need
Mindful - of the needs of others
--Anne Wilde

On Saturday, March 15th, Lizzie was baptized by her father. It was so nice to be able to do her baptism in Salt Lake City with so many family able to come. Afterwards, we had a brunch at my parents' house. What a special day!
