Katie Belle's baptism day finally arrived on September 8th. She had been anxiously waiting and was SO excited to be baptized. My mom made her the white dress she had picked out and all dressed up she looked beautiful and all grown up.
All ready in her baptismal clothes that Sadie and I have worn before her.
Here she is right after coming out of the water. She came up the steps of the font jumping up and down and saying, "I'm baptized! I'm baptized! I can't believe it! I'm baptized!" I was so happy for her because she was so happy you couldn't help it! :)
I remember being nervous with Sadie because she was nervous, but with Katie Belle I was just so happy for her. So happy as her mother that she wanted so badly to be baptized and that she truly felt a joy in being baptized. It was just such a special feeling of happiness and joy.
It makes me so happy I cry just thinking about it again.
Her grandma and grandpa Mattox gave her a lei for her special day.
All the cousins.
All the family that could come.
Congratulations to my Katie Belle! I know how happy I was for you as your mother and I know that your Heavenly Father is just as happy and proud of you as I am. We ALL love you!

See now that you're blogging even someone with as bad a memory as me can remember all the good times that have happened and I was there to be a special part of.
