Wells' Baby Dedication

Today was such an incredible day. We dedicated Wells to the Lord, and to the church body today. Both sets of grandparents came and Robyn, Charles and Max came as well (my sister and her family). It was such an honor for us to present Wells to the church and to really give our promise that we will raise Wells in a Christian home and bring him up to prayerfully love the Lord with all his heart and soul. Chris and I picked out scripture for him that Chris read aloud and that we will pray for Wells for the rest of his life. The scripture was Proverbs 3:3-4. It was even more special because we got to share this with two of our best couple friends from our community group (sunday school), The Blairs and Matteos. All our boys are close in age and will hopefully be great friends for a long time. It was also the first time that I have sat in the sanctuary for church since Wells has been born. It was an emotional day and really encouraging. Wells wore my brother-in-laws christening gown from when he was little and everyone loved it...except Chris who said it was a dress. As soon as we got to church, a sweet lady said "Oh, she is beautiful" and Chris just glared at me! I thought it was hilarious! To me he just looked like a doll! Anyways, after the dedication we all came over for lunch and cake. It was just an awesome day and one I will always remember.
