Leila's Christening

Well, we finally did it. She walked into the church on her own and I thought it took us so long that she might have a date for her own Christening but...we finally baptised our wee little Leila. She can know enjoy a lifetime of guild and shame like the rest of us Catholics. It was a lovely ceremony by Fr English, a friend of the family. Although, it was 100 degrees that day and the church felt more like
HE-double hockey sticks, we all managed to hold it together. Leila's Godparents, Dan and Lisa, each our long time best friends, did a fabulous job of making promises and saying I do's. The baptism was followed by a wonderful party at a local restaurant.
