last week, miss grace turned 8 so off we trekked to kalgoorlie over the weekend for her baptism. what a wonderful girl our grace is. tiny, sweet, enthusiatic, lovable, cuddly, strong, determined and just... gorgeous. i'm not biased at all, i swear. she received the print above from the neighbours, for a baptism gift - and it describes her so perfectly, for if anyone will climb a mountain,
it will be our grace.
big sister laura and i sang together for grace:
i like to look for rainbows, whenever there is rain
and ponder on the beauty of an earth made clean again
i want my life to be as clean, as earth right after rain
i want to be the best i can - and live with god again
i know when i am baptised, my wrongs are washed away
and i can be forgiven and improve myself each day
i want my life to be as clean, as earth right after rain
i want to be the best i can - and live with god again

it was so lovely to see grace in her beautiful white dress (the same one i wore to be baptised!) all those years ago - and laura wore too! - followed by big sis laura's flowergirl dress from our wedding. it was a wonderful day and i was so pleased
(and extremely proud) to be a part of it!
grace with dad (my big brother) jared and mum donna
