Wow, Are you really that OLD!!



It is sometimes hard for me to think that my sweet little baby is already 8 years old, but I just try not to remember that in 5 years she'll be a teenager and in another 8 she'll be driving (whoa, stop the crazy train--I want OFF!!).


We had a wonderful baptism for her on Oct. 3. She was baptized along with two other children (twins) because their baptism had been called off due to the hurricane, so I asked them to reschedule with us.


There was a BIG turnout, but we were most grateful to Rachel, Eric and Kiersten for coming and being there for Meghan, not to mention the blast that all the cousins had while they were here.


The other mom helped get things pulled together wonderfully, namely the program and she even had a cake made for Meghan (she also had one for her twins). We are so grateful that Meghan is such a responsible and righteous little girl. Congratulations Meghan!!

My goodness, she has grown to be such a beautiful young woman. Baptized?... hmm. Hard to believe she's that age. Is it just me or is time going faster and faster? Congratulations Meghan!

I was so bummed we couldn't make it!! Meghan looks so beautiful! I can't believe she is 8 either. I vividly remember coming to your house and helping you when she was born. She's the only grandchild that I was actually able to see her birth. Anyway, we love you Meghan!
