Edith's Baptism

Welcome to the Church sweet girl. Your faith is the greatest gift we will ever give you and we pray every day that we share it well. 
Edith Margaret, you are named for some pretty fierce women, we pray that you, like them, will be strong. Strong in your faith, strong in your convictions, strong in your generosity, strong in your courage to be vulnerable and admit weakness, strong for all who need to lean on you, and mostly, that there is strength in your giving and receiving love.
 We love you Sweet E, happy baptism!
It was a lovely day to celebrate Edith's baptism on November 12, 2017. Fr. Jordan from St. Peter's presided and family from both sides and all over made it to DC for the occasion. Gemma fell asleep right after Mass and before the baptism so she has no memory of the day and was very disoriented for all pictures. Edith was perfectly behaved and would go to anyone who wanted to hold her. I owe everything to Shan for the party after at our house, the cake, the cookies, the decor. Thanks for everything you do for me and my girls ;)
