Calvin with Grandpa and Grandma Barrett
Here he is with Grandpa and Grandma Clarke
Our family
Calvin was baptized this past Saturday. It was a beautiful day and he loved it. We had lots of family and even some friends come to share our special day. I asked Calvin how he felt after his baptism and he said, "I feel like I've done everything right." What a cute guy! We had my brother's baby blessing on Sunday, so we had to choose between going to the blessing and attending our ward where Calvin would get sustained as a new member, sit on the stand, and bear his testimony. When I asked him which he would prefer, he said, "I'll do either." Then a minute later he said, "But if I go to our ward, I'd get to be a REAL member of the church that much sooner." You guessed it--we stayed at our home ward. We're proud of you Calvin. Aren't kids what the journey is all about?
