Oct 17--
Our Kai Guy got his baby blessing at our home, surrounded by family and close friends. I was a bit apprehensive about having the blessing in our house, since it is typically done at church, but it was wonderful! Very intimate and special. Mom and Dad Towers and my brother Rob came into town for the event too! Both of Kai's grandfathers particpated - Dad T with a talk about blessings and Dad P with an opening prayer. We sang "Teach Me To Walk in the Light". Aaron gave the blessing as the circle of priesthood holders stood around Kai in a circle -- the spirit was very strong. Just to add humor, Kai let out two huge audible poops right at the end of the blessing; much snickering followed. We dined on various desserts afterwards and had a good time seeing everyone!
A few items from the blessing:
-Health
-Obedience and trust in parents
-Example to future siblings (!!!!)
-Follow Jesus Christ, especially in serving others
-Find joy
-Pursue education
-Serve a mission
-Marry and start a family
And my favorite line, "Never has a baby been so loved in all the world." So true! :)
