Being baptized next sunday

[sugarmagnolia1]

 Wow. I can't believe it came so fast. Seems like yesterday i was meeting the Pastor for the first time. I am pretty nervous, as I don't do well in front of crowds......My in laws are coming down from NY because the children, Autumn and Logan are being baptized as well. I am excited but nervous :)

I love the church and all of the people and I just know this is going to be a good thing.

I am happy for you!  If you really need to lighten up the moment, just pull the old "picture everybody in their underwear" trick.  I promise you won't go to hell for having impure thoughts during baptism if it's the key to keep you from getting too nervous. :-)

Then again, your kids will be baptized too, so you can always focus on them and that will also help take your mind off the crowd.  The underwear thing is just funnier.

Way to go momma, I was baptised a couple of years ago, and think it was a great decision for me. You will do fine, God is on your side ;)
