Simon Patrick


My sweet baby boy was blessed by his Daddy today.

I feel overwhelmed with gratitude...
To my Heavenly Father for a wonderful husband
and four healthy, happy boys.
To my parents for their examples and support.
To my in-laws for raising such a great son.
To all our family and friends who traveled far to be here.
(and for all those who couldn't make it.)
For my testimony in the Gospel and
ward members who are our family away from home.

Today has been such a special day.
I love my adorable little Simon Patrick.
I am so thrilled that he's a part of our family.


PS
A HUGE THANKS to my friend Kashina for taking
darling pictures of Simon in his blessing outfit.
I have lots more to post later....

He looked so adorable in his little outfit today. He is such a cutie, I'm glad that it was such a special day for you. Your boys are so sweet, and I hope Zack had a good birthday! Ben came up in Primary today to tell everyone, "I know that Jesus loves me because ___________." He said "because Heavenly Father gave me a family." The children in Primary were such a good example to me today and strengthen my testimony.

OH SO SWEET! This post melted my heart and the pictures melted me. SO cute!!! What a wonderful feeling you shared with us. There is nothing more precious, to me, than to see my husband bless our children.

Simon looks so big already! His little face is getting so cute and plump, I just love it! Congrats again. You guys have a darling family.

What a precious little outfit, oooh and his smile is adorable! Who says boys clothes aren't 'cute'? Glad you had a special blessing day. I always get emotional when I see a tiny spirit surrounded by the Priesthood receiving a name and a blessing!

I can't wait to meet this little guy this week! He is so cute! It was good to catch up. I've felt so out of touch. You've had a lot going on. I don't think you've had a chance to rest since Simon was born and you aren't going to be resting this week! I'll see ya soon.
