Today was a great day for our family! Paul had chosen today to be baptized after becoming a Christian a few months ago. He has been so excited about his baptism and couldn't wait for the day to get here. I heard him jump out of bed this morning yelling loudly, "I'm dead! I'm dead...I'm dead to my sinful ways!" Then he proceeded to tell Addie, "But Addie, now listen, I'm not perfect. I'm still going to sin after becoming a Christian and being baptized. I'm probably still going to be mean to you sometimes." It was definitely a way to start the day with a smile on my face! We had a wonderful day at church with family and friends, then to Jeneannes for lunch, and back to the house for dessert and gifts. It was a special day! Glenn told the kids tonight that watching his kids come to know Jesus and choosing to follow Him as their Lord and Savior will be the highlight of his life. Paul's face doesn't show in the pictures or video like we saw it today watching him but his face showed joy...deep down God-given joy!
