Blessing


Seth was blessed the first Sunday this month. It was a beautiful blessing. I had woken up that morning in a bad mood and stayed in a bad mood for no good reason all morning. I got the kids ready and went to church and met Matt there. As soon as the first words of the blessing started, my bad mood melted away and I got all teary eyed and listened as my husband gave Seth a wonderful blessing.


(Can't resist a good crying picture)



Now, I have to say that I am so disappointed with the clothing stores. There is a serious lack of dressy clothes for boys. You have tons of PJs and rompers to choose from, but there arent' pants that aren't denim or sweat pant material. No sweater vests or plain button down shirts. I had gotten Luke's blessing outfit from JCPenny. When I looked for one for Seth, they had nothing. Luckily, last minute, I found a cute little plain white polo onesie at Walmart at 10 pm the night before the blessing. The pants are from Luke's blessing outfit. The top half of Luke's blessing outfit had that yellow stain that develops over time from spit up. Time to go get that dry cleaned. This all was part of my bad mood on Sunday. I was mad at myself for forgetting about the blessing until the night before (things have been pretty hectic) and mad that I didn't have an outfit just for Seth. I wanted all my kids to have their own blessing outfit to have when they grow up and have children of their own. So much for that plan. I'll just keep it as my own keepsake and they can use it down the road if they want to. I'm over it.
