Emmett's Blessing

August 29th was a very special day for our family. We finally had a chance to bless Emmett in sacrament. It was also the first time he'd ever attended church!

* Great Grandma Erickson and Great Grandma and Grandpa Flamm were also there, but I didn't have them in any pictures :-(

I've always known what a special, strong spirit Emmett is, and I couldn't help but tear up with joy over all the wonderful blessings he has in store. The bishop said it well when he stood up after the blessing and said, "All babies are miracles, but this one especially - and he let us know he was alive and strong today" (Emmett let out a few good screams during the blessing of course).

We felt so blessed to have our loving, supportive families there to share the special day with us. It is one we will cherish forever.
