We had Jade’s Baby Blessing on Father’s Day. It was quite a special day for all of us. Gary gave a beautiful blessing. One phrase that we has really stood out to us from the blessing that Gary gave Jade, “We bless you that you may teach us to become better parents and will grow together here on earth and have joy.” Jade has already started teaching us, and we feel so grateful her presence.
Note that the picture above was not taken on June 20th. She was changed out of her dress that day before Gary and I had a chance to take some pictures. So this is Jade at 4 months. The rest of the pictures we taken on Father's Day. Jade doesn't always cry, but when the bink is gone she doesn't want to smile for a picture very often at 2 months.
We were thankful that Grandma & Grandpa Christensen and Sparrow could join us. We had several other special guests. Mariah Sparrow, Lisa Crane, Evan and Sommer Christensen Family, Brandon & Lisa Dopf. We are so thanking for all our friends and family who have celebrated with us the arrival of Jade. To make the day even just a little more unique and special, Gary and I were both able to receive a Father’s blessing from our Fathers on Father’s Day.
