On Saturday May 16, 2009 my father finally got baptized. I know, I know you probably felt the earth shake but in all seriousness it was the most amazing thing. The spirit was so strong. I am so great full that my children were able to witness such and amazing experience like that. I am thankful that my father, who is probably the most shy person you will ever meet, consented to have others attend. I am thankful for a Father in Heaven who loves us so much, that after much patience, allowed my fathers heart to be turned to God. I am thankful, that as his health fails him, that he will know that even if his time on this earth is short that he will be united with his family again one day. I am thankful that I am able to reconnect with my father who had been lost for so many years. I am thankful that I have a family who is always willing to let me spend his last moments on earth with him. Way to go Dad, Way to go.

I don't know how I missed this! What a wonderful experience! My dad isn't a member yet, but this gives me hope!
Now looking back I am sure that you are grateful he took that step ... brought tears to my eyes!
We love and miss you all. We continue to pray for you all!
