On Sunday, we had ourselves an old-fashioned baby dunkin'! Despite my ongoing ambivalence about my own Catholicism, it was a really nice ceremony and I was glad my parents were there and sorry that Mimi's parents weren't and moved by the whole event to the point that I might even go back to St. Therese some Sunday to see what's going on. Don't tell my Mom. (Hi Mom!)
So, Yuki is now officially one of the flock. Let the skipping of church and joining Youth Group to meet cute boys commence!
And now, pictures (all taken by friend, and crackerjack photographer, Erika):
Our friend Ellen, who chose not to feed her daughter before her baptism more than 20 years ago and still regrets the decision, suggested we feed Yuki beforehand to ensure angelic behavior. It worked! Thank you, Ellen.
The dunk! This was Deacon Greg's first baptism (Yuki was number 5 of 7 kids that day) and he didn't lose a one. Nice work, Deacon Greg.
Sin-free and loving it!
Look! Even my foot is Catholic!
Philip's parents stood in for Philip's brother and his wife who are Yuki's godparents. If you ever wondered, "What will Philip look like in 40 years?" Here is your answer.
Yuki nailed the all-important first step for any Catholic: the church giggle.
I was told there would be doughnuts. Where are the doughnuts?
