Today we met as a family in our home to share in the joy of a blessing. Little baby Zoey was blessed and given her name today. Those priesthood holders in the circle were her father Garen who gave her a sweet blessing, her grandfather Paul Wood, her great grandfather Brad Frank, her great uncles DelRay Woodruff, Dan Nesbit, Jeff Firth, Todd Johnson, and Sid Soria. The Bishopric of the Elwood Second Ward, Bishop John Baxter, his counselors Greg Iverson and Tim Nichols. Garen gave Zoey a sweet father's blessing. Good health, good friends, and that she would understand at the the proper age the importance of her baptism to become a member of His Church that would lead her to all eternal blessings.
I am also very grateful for the support and love that our family shows to one another as we celebrate these special days. If it is at all possible I know that they will be present to give their love and support. We also miss and think of those whose circumstances make it so they can not come.
As I watch this sweet family I am so very grateful for each one of them. Always their for each other and yet always willing to let each one be unique and do their own thing without judgement or scorn. They truly represent the attributes that our Savior would desire.
Zoey we welcome you, we love you, we pray for you and your family always.
