Being EIGHT is great!!

Our day began really early.  5am to be exact.  We got up to prepare and make sure all was ready for babygirls baptism.  Got the family ready and packed for the day.  We prepared a simple lunch for our family and friends and didn't want to forget anything.  Got to the chapel an hour early to set up.  Baptism began at 9am.
The baptism was spiritually uplifting.  Hearing the talks and music.  My son spoke on the 'The Gift of the Holy Ghost".  My kids along with my Tapusoa nieces and nephew sang "I am A Child of God" remix that my DH's cousin Jr Mulitalo wrote.  I love seeing lil children participate in the program.  I couldn't help buy smile and cry seeing my husband baptize and confirm Daisy today.  It really is a blessing to have the priesthood in our family.
Daisy girl was excited for her day.  She loved seeing her family and friends there for her special day.  Luse was also baptized with her.  The both just looked happy.  I pray that they'll always remember this day and know that Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ loves them.  That they recognize and listen to the promptings of the spirit and try their best to do good always.

 In a haste to get everything ready for lunch, I didn't get any pictures.  Boo me.  Here are some of the girls before the baptism with some of the family.
