Lydia's Baptism

In February we had our sweet Lydia baptized by Father Ed Fitzpatrick at the Newman Center. He is the same priest that married us and baptized Jack, and we are so happy that he could do the same for Lydia. We asked Nile Eckermann, Nike's cousin, and Heidi Fincham, one of Jeff's longtime friends, to be the godparents. It was such a great experience. We cannot put into words what it meant to stand in front of so many family and friends while Father Ed asked them all to pray for us as we raise our children. We were looking at the "village" we have to support our family, and it was incredibly moving.
