Today Alex was baptized! After he got dressed, he asked me, "How handsome am I?" He also asked that to Tawnya:). At the condo I asked him what he felt about getting baptized, and he said that he'd have to have more talks with his dad. He said he'd talked with daddy about his baptism, but mostly about the food:). So Todd took him on a walk this morning. After his baptism, we went out to eat. Then, Todd took Alex on a date to the BYU football game. Todd talked about baptism, and he talked about names and taking upon us the name of Christ. Then I played my flute while Nathan sang "I'm Trying to be Like Jesus." I asked Nathan this morning if he wanted to do it, and if he wanted someone to sing with him, and he just wanted to do it by himself. There were a lot of people there but he did it and afterward said he wasn't even nervous. I asked him if he wanted to say something first, and he said he would if he knew what to say. So I gave him some ideas and he ended up saying that he wanted to give Alex a baptism present, and it's singing him this song.
Pictures we had taken of him at Fotogenix:
