Isn’t he a real cutie? Look at that sweet smile. Colin James, our godchild, was dedicated at church yesterday! And, Mark got to do it since he is now an elder. Mark explained what an infant dedication is and is not and what being godparents means. He did a really nice job explaining that as some people don’t quite “get” what a dedication is. It was a real privilege to be a part of the dedication and a real honor to be his godparents. What a pleasure it will be to watch him grow and hold his parents’ accountable to raising him in a godly home. We take the job very seriously! And, the icing on the cake was that I sang in church! Yup, haven’t done that in SO long since I’ve had so many issues with my voice. But, I did it!

Took the clan out to Reading Public Museum today (love that reciprocal membership with the Franklin!) and enjoyed seeing art, armor, jewels, a shrunken human head (for real? How DO they do that?), and a real mummy! It was good to go out as a family and enjoy the lovely stream and garden area outside the museum. Apparently, it’s a hot spot for wedding photos. Two bridal parties were there when we were there. And, yes, the one is wearing a neon green bridal gown and looks like she’s too young to go to prom much less get married. Interesting scene.
