Ani's Baptism

Ani was baptised September 8th.   It was such a beautiful, peaceful day full of love, happiness and gratitude.  We had almost all of the family there from both sides, and dear friends there too.  I am so proud of Ani and his righteous desire and his unshaking faith.  We had actually had a family fast about the week previous.  Our prayers were answered that same day.  When I told the kids the next morning, Ani was so grateful and said, " Mom, he listened, our prayers were answered!"  He spent the rest of the morning reading his scriptures and praying to Heavenly Father to thank him.  I love how he gave all the praise to Heavenly Father and didn't take any for himself.  I love his faith and the peace it brings in our home.  And I am so grateful that the Lord answered my children's prayers and sacrifice through His tender mercies.

 Ani spent the next couple day trying with all his might to be obediant and thoughtful so as to stay clean.  It was a sweet reminder of baptism that stayed with us for several days.

We were so happy to have Daddy with us for a week.  We enjoyed every minute with him!
