Last Sunday (December 29, 2013) was Cooper's baby blessing. He looked so handsome dressed in all white and was just as sweet as ever. The men who participated in it were of course Josh (Daddy) joined by Bill (Grandpa), Jason (Uncle), James (Uncle), and some friends in our ward. During the blessing he was wide awake, but didn't make a single sound. Josh did a wonderful job and was a complete natural at it. He choked up at the very beginning which made it even more special! After the blessing as Josh held him up to show the congregation Coop did one of his cute little sneezes. It was the funniest thing ever! Here are some of the things that were shared in his blessing:
you will have the knowledge of the love of your Heavenly Father
you have been born in the covenant and blessed with the responsibility to follow Heavenly Father's work
you will see those around you as children of God and seek knowledge to understand others troubles and relate and love them
you will love the gospel
you will know the love of your parents and relatives and will be raised in a house that teachers you to love Christ
you will serve others and grow with the desire to serve a mission
you will be faithful to the covenants of Father in Heaven
As parents, we are absolutely scared to raise our son during these troublesome and challenging times, but know he will be guided and protected as he follows our example and gains his own
testimony. Cooper--remember that you are loved and have wonderful grandparents and relatives watching over you!
