Cooper's Baptism

We were so excited to go and join the celebration of Cooper's baptism. He asked me to give a talk and I based it off of a talk called "Logan's Baptism." It went well and the whole day was very pleasant. Cooper is a very bright and active boy! In fact, Crew likes to pretend he is Cooper sometimes.

Callie's personality is really blossoming and she seemed to love to be around me when I was doing girly things. One morning, as I was getting ready, she was looking at my travel bag and all that it held. She would ask what certain items were, followed by a discussion. I asked Callie what she likes to do and she told me, "Play football. But my brothers' say I can't play football with them because I am a girl."
After Cooper's baptism we were all hanging out by the pool. I didn't bring my boys suits, but they were wading in their underwear and t-shirts. Sawyer had a watering can that he kept leaning over the edge to fill up. I had warned him that he needed to be more careful or he would fall in. Eventually he did. I didn't even see or hear him. Thank goodness he had fallen where it was shallow enough for him to stand up and get his head above the water. That is when I saw him. He looked like a wet cat and wasn't very happy. But, 10 minutes later he was filling up his watering can; much  more carefully! And I was much more alert!
