Today little baby Jessica got baptized and it was special to get to be a part of that. Sometimes I wonder how I got so lucky, or is blessed the better word, to get to be here. To be welcomed so openly into their family, to come alongside them...it's not actually easy to describe.
It was interesting to see how it's done here (or at least in the village), with a little branch dipped in saltwater while the pastors says prayers over the baby whilst wiping the wet branch around her head, mouth, hands...like I said, interesting.
I can't wait until she's old enough for sleepovers and to learn English. I've got a lot of plans for this kid!
