Well, and so it goes, I have another perfect child...for a moment at least. Andrew got Baptized on Saturday. What a sweetheart. Amidst the usual "boy" moments, Andrew is a love and a cutie. He bore his testimony in church yesterday, so innocent, and told the congregation that at first he was nervous to get baptized and go under the water (I learned of his underwater fears after years of swimming lessons watching him do ANYTHING to keep his head above water)...but that he was also excited to get his "sins washed away." He then said he felt a warm feeling when he went under and was grateful to follow Jesus' example. When he was baptized, we were a little worried that John's back would give out...I told the witnesses to jump in and save him in case he started drowning (!) but all went well. I almost laughed when both of Andrew's feet left the ground and almost floated out of the water...I guess he was just hangin' out there and wanted Dad to do all the work!
Anyway, thanks to all who came. He and I talked that night, and he was so grateful to have such good family support...he was trying to name off everyone who came. Also, thanks for all of the FOOD! It was so yummy and nice for a spring day. I love you all...and love you, Andrew!

Kim, thanks for the post. I'm so sad I wasn't there. I guess I'll have to call you and chat with ya and tell ya what was up! But Andrew is such a good kid and so sweet! I bet it was wonderful! Love you guys!
Kim...it was a great day! I love having reasons to get together as a family. And the baptism was so special (even with so many kids that day). Your stake was AWESOME at making things go smoothly for everyone. Andrew is a great kid and we're glad we could be there!
I'm sad to not have been there, but it sure looks like it was a great day! Thanks for the recap!
