Our church is part of the Christian and Missionary Alliance, which is very similar to the baptist denomination, where children are dedicated (parents promise to raise their children in a christian home) instead of baptised (baptisms are a choice later in life)
Sophie's aunt Allison bought her a very nice dedication dress - she looked beautiful in it!
Sophie's only been to church with us a few times, but she loves music and claps or raises her hand when she likes the song.
I'll get the video up this week - but Sophie was a card during the dedication portion of the service - shaking her head at the pastor when he asked to hold her (the entire church laughed!)
While the pastor was praying, she was poking my eyes, since I had them closed...
She received a beautiful blue an green dedication quilt from the church, and I was a very proud papa.
After the service, we took our moms (and my sisters and aunt) out to a Chinese buffet for mother's day.
I made a card for Stacy as if it came from Sophie (who signed it), and she really liked it.
It was a good day!

Having Sophie's dedication on Mothers Day was the perfect day to have it. I will never forget it. It truly was a wonderful Mothers Day.
Kirstin & Brad, thank you for all of the wonderful comments you have left for us. I can't wait to read them after each new post from Larry. I look forward to hearing soon that you've had your little one.
Stacy
