Well, Atticus is 3 1/2 months old and we finally blessed him today! After everything that happened in the past few months, we finally felt confident about setting a date. It was such a great day.
I was a little stressed out about the whole thing, but everything turned out so well. Daylight saving ended up being a blessing in disguise, Atticus woke up "early" and so was able to get a nap in before the meeting so he was a little happier. It was also such a beautiful day with all of the leaves turning colors but still warm enough to be outside.
I was so happy that some of my family were able to make it and finally meet my little boy. We didn't snag a photo of Garrett's family, but many of them came as well. Garrett did such a beautiful job with the blessing, it just touched my heart to see him bless our little boy.
“We should not need a hurricane or other crisis to remind us of what matters most. The gospel and the Lord’s plan of happiness and salvation should remind us. What matters most is what lasts longest, and our families are for eternity.”
- Elder M. Russell Ballard
