Logan's Blessing



We blessed Logan today in our home while Mark's parents and sister, Heather, and her husband, Jason were here visiting us for Thanksgiving.  I couldn't help but get a little sad as I dressed this little boy in his blessing outfit, realizing how much he had grown in the short 10 weeks we've had him and knowing that my heart never knew it could love something or somebody so much! Logan has been the best baby! He is so happy and sweet.  He's just what I wished for after having twins and now I am taking all the time in the world to kiss and snuggle and enjoy him since he is probably my last. That alone, makes me SO SAD.  I wish I could keep him little forever or just freeze time.  Today, I am grateful, more than ever, for the blessing I have of being a mother and to have this little guy in my life.



I was so proud of Mark, too.  He gave Logan such a beautiful blessing and I am grateful for him and the priesthood he holds.  We were both so happy his dad could be here to be a part of everything since Logan carries his name.  That made it so very special.  It was sweet seeing the two of them together.

On a lighter note, Mark told Nicholas to go and get dressed because we were going to give Logan a name and a blessing, which we do in our church.   Nicholas replied, "But Dad, he already has a name.  It's Logan."   It made us both laugh.  That's one for the quote books!

So glad you had a great Thanksgiving! It looked beautiful! What a sweet, sweet family you have. Logan is so cute! It is so sad to see them grow so fast, but it's so fun to see them in every stage too. Give that sweet baby a kiss from me.
