leo john paul

Today was the day we introduced Leo to his bigger, better family... the Church one. He has been attending Mass since he was three days old, but this was the day we made it official and had him Baptized, marked as a Child of God.

I loved Leo's Baptism. We were so happy to have him baptized by cousin/Fr. Greg, and to have our dear Moynihan friends as his godparents. Joe played a song on the piano. Readings were taken care of by Grandpa, Grammie, Annie, and the godparents. Henry led us in a sweet litany of the Saints. And Clara wrapped it all up with a rousing rendition of Jesus Loves Me. The liturgy may not have been perfect, but it was family and that was perfect for us.
