Xanders blessing day

Xanders 3rd big day was his blessing day.  Since losing our twins, baby blessings have been an incredibly hard experience to deal with.  It was something that we were suppose to experience and while I was always thrilled for others, it was an experience that I desperately wanted for our family, and especially for Eldon.  Baby blessings are such a beautiful experience for Fathers to be able to be a part of.  This day along with the other big days this past week are things that we have anxiously awaited for what seems like forever.  Finally it was our turn.  It was a beautiful day.  Xander cried through the entire blessing and I couldnt help but giggle.    Eldon pronounced a beautiful blessing and I was so very proud to have such an amazing husband who holds the priesthood honorably and was able to participate in this special day for our son.  I was also so very grateful for all the support from family and friends that came to help celebrate our family.  It was beautiful and   I am so very grateful for the many blessings that we have been given and specifically for this sweet little boy.  Xander has absolutely brought so much joy to our home and our family.  He has given us hope and purpose and the ability to love deeper than we ever could have imagined.
