A few weeks ago we drove over to Mesa for a very special weekend. Brigg's baptism and confirmation and little Cali's baby blessing.
In the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints we wait to baptize the child until they are eight years old. We call this the age of accountability. When we are baptized and confirmed, we receive the gift of the Holy Ghost and make a covenant with Heavenly Father to obey his commandments. It does not mean we will never make a mistake again, it just means we are old enough to be responsible for our choices. A baby blessing is just that, a blessing from our Father in Heaven.
It was a wonderful experience. We are so thankful for everyone who made the effort to be there and support our family.
