Baptism Day, April 7, 2002

Day Family

This is me on my baptism day, with my Mommy, Trish; my Daddy, John; and big sister, Diana. Reverend Harry Baxter of the College Park United Methodist Church , came to my house and performed the ceremony right in my very own living room. It was a beautiful ceremony filled with the love of family and friends. My good friend and namesake, "Big Steve," took these pictures, which I would like to share with you now.

Laura, Mike and Steven Bill Linda and Pat

Here I am with my godparents, Laura and Mike, who are my Daddy's brother and sister. They both came from faaaaaar away, just to spend my special day with me.

These are three of my grandparents, Daddy's Mommy and Daddy, Bill and Linda, and my Nonna, Mommy's mommy.


the Pouring of the Water Baptism

As the ceremony began, Rev. Baxter poured the water as he explained the meaning of baptism.

And then I was baptized. I only squirmed a little but I didn't even cry. Everyone said a prayer for me and then the ceremony ended.


Mike and Melanie

My Uncle Mike and Aunt Mel came in from Florida just to spend the day with me. I feel so special!! I can't wait until I'm big enough to visit Uncle Mike's "boss" in Orlando!



I had some really special visitors that day, all the way from Israel! They are friends of my Mommy and Daddy, through their project for parents with disabilities. See those pictures here.
