How wonderful it is to be a part of someone's family as their Godparents. We have the great privilege of being Godparents to some very very special young people. Last month we were invited to be Godparents to our friends' little darling, Guilianna Maria. What a precious honor it is to be 'adopted' into our friends' family in this very special way. Our children have loved this, too, and we definitely hype up this neat bond for them as well. All along, I've taken to the title "Godsisters/Godbrothers," as a title for our children to refer to any Godchildren we have, as I truly do believe Godchildren become a part of your family in a unique way. We're all brothers and sisters in Christ, and using this term with the kids really seems to highlight this spiritual extension/bond for them, too.
Here are some pictures from the Baptismal party for Giulianna, following her baptism at Church.
Meet our new Goddaughter, our children's new Godsister, the Church's newest little saint,
Guilianna Maria:
(Hoping for a better picture of Papa with Guili this weekend, as he had conjunctivitis going on that weekend, and didn't want to pass it along to anyone!!)
