When I think about Grayson's baptism I wonder what his memories of it will be. Will he remember that no children's baptism clothes could be located, and that he had to wear adult clothes rolled way up? Will he remember how much he giggled as he tried to exit the font with those long, wet baptism clothes weighing him down? I know he won't remember his sweet smile right before he was confirmed, but I will. I hope that he will always remember what a gift it is to be baptized, and what a wonderful event this is in his life.
I know he will remember Grandma and Grandpa being there, and the beautiful leather journal they gave him. He started writing about his baptism in it last night.
I'm so proud of him!

I'm so glad I got to be there! Congratulations, Grayson! You are a great kid!
What a great day for sure! I am so happy for the good choices our young boys make by choosing to be baptised!
What a big day. I am impressed that he started writing in his journal that night. He will be glad that he did that when he gets older.
what a great day! And the little glitches will just make it all the more memorable. Good for Grayson for writing in his journal right away.
What a special moment in his life. Congratulation, Grayson!
I think all the little quirks just added to the special memories, and it didn't even seem to phase him a bit. We enjoyed being there to share in his special day, so thank you! As always when I see a child baptised it brings tears to my eyes.
