As I prepare for church this morning I am thinking of all the circumstances that brought us to today. I am going to be baptizing my daughter Samantha Ann Guidry. She was not always Samantha Ann Guidry. She was born Samantha Ann Belrose. I legally formalized the relationship that already existed since she was 8 months old in February of 2007. Today I will baptize her, publicly recognizing her adoption as a child of God. I know just a little bit of how He feels. It is awesome that she selected me to take part in this public confession of her faith. We celebrate our daughter; we celebrate our adoption as Children of God.

Awesome! I love how you tied together her adoption and baptism
Thanks Becca! It was such a blessing to get to baptize Sami! This blog just rolled out of my heart this morning.
