Jaggar's Dedication

Last Sunday, November 1st, we had Jaggar dedicated. Because we have so many services and because they want to make it nicer for the families, baby dedications are their own service. It was really beautiful. They had a slide show with the song "My Wish" by Rascal Flatts (which tears me up every time) with pictures of all of the babies and their families. There was a charge to the parents and grandparents to raise our children in the love and knowledge of God, and then Kent brought each family up one by one to recognize them individually.

Unfortunately, for me and Jaggar, we had already been there since 7:45 that morning, and it was 1 something when it began. He had had ENOUGH of being there, so we spent quite a bit of time in the back or outside in the lobby praying we wouldn't miss our turn. Finally though, it was his turn, and they read the form that I had filled out weeks ago about what his name meant and what HE meant to our family. Then they prayed over him, anointed his head with oil and his lips with honey to symbolize the Word of God always being sweet in his mouth. It was a beautiful service, and I'm glad that our families got to be a part of it.

so sweet
