As some of you know, Kaylah has been asking our Pastor for a while if she could be baptized. (Bap-i-tized, when Kaylah pronounces it, it's a 3 syllable word!) We were caught a bit off-guard with the suddenness of today, but Kaylah is sweet and sincere and knew what she wanted. It was beautiful (when she was in the baptismal pool and Pastor Rich asked her why she had come forward today) to hear Kaylah, unrehearsed, tell the congregation that Jesus lives in her heart and that's why she wanted to be baptized.
I missed having family there, but am thankful that Kaylah knows she's loved and was too excited about the baptism to think about anything else! :) I only got two pictures, but here's a glimpse into Kaylah's special day:
