On July 14th Calvin turned 8 years old. He had been planning on a "late night" party with all of his friends but
the night of the party a huge rainstorm came through and last minute we had to change all of our plans. Instead of outdoor night games we played inside games with 12 boys. It was loud and crazy. But Calvin had a good time. A couple of weeks later on August 3rd he was baptized a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day saints. It was a wonderful day. The sun was shining and so was Calvin. Lots of family came to support Calvin. After the service Calvin said, "That was so fun I want to do it again." Jon and I replied,"you did!" When he was baptized his little toes popped up out of the water and he had to be baptized again. Jon said there wasn't much water in the font and he pretty much had to lay Calvin down. Calvin didn't mind at all. Jon gave Calvin a beautiful confirmation blessing when he received the Holy Ghost. Jon blessed him to always listen to and follow the Holy Ghost. We had a fun nacho lunch at our home afterwards. It was a great day.
