William's baptism

OK, so we were a little late getting around to this, being that William is, er, 6, but never mind! God understands and did not even ask for a tardy note. At least William will be able to say that he took an active part in his own baptism and that he remembers it. Most people can't say that.

We had an intimate gathering of friends and family present for the occasion at St Joseph Church on December 23, 2011. William's first grade teacher Sister Margaret Ann attended. Sister Elizabeth Ann was there too. She's in charge of tracking down all non baptized citizens in town, making them repent their sins and getting them dunked. (Not really). Monsignor Fryer officiated and we are thankful for his time since I'm sure he may have had one or two other pressing issues to attend to two days before Christmas.

Matt and Darlene honored us by agreeing to be William's godparents. Matt wore his dress blue uniform in order to impress the Monsignor. It worked. (Thanks Matt.)
