I found that there were varying degrees of passion about the subject at Fischer's. People who are religious are going to think it is a very big deal and be quite excited about it, and with all of the company you have coming up for it... you better have a little party or go out for breakfast or something. They may even be bringing gifts! Take some time to think about the meaning of baptism, if Tom has initiated it, it must be important to him. If you spend a little time thinking about how this fits into your own beliefs, then it will have more meaning for you and be a little bit more special. Andy and I have different faiths (I'm Christian and he is not - for starters), so we had a baby dedication rather than a baptism. We had our immediate family and friends come up to the mountains and my childhood youth pastor performed the ceremony. We had sat down with him beforehand to discuss our beliefs and our purpose in the dedication. It made the whole thing really special for both Andy and I. We dedicated Fischer to God and promised to raise him with the knowledge of our beliefs, and to pray with him, and eventually to take him to a church. We also asked all of the people who came to be his "angels" and help us to raise him with strong values and help him to make good choices. (It sounded a bit more eloquent than that, I can't quite remember the wording). Geez, too much information - sorry. Just enjoy the day and all of the compaany and the attention that Nicky is getting. I hope you post some pics!Lisa, F is for Fischerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03099795263288256108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14222023.post-3177984901213259952008-06-04T13:22:00.000-04:002008-06-04T13:22:00.000-04:00Hi Sweetheart!
