I love baptisms. It contains some of my favorite elements in any kind of event: children and symbolism. The innocence of a child coupled with the symbolism of washing away his/her original sins is so refreshing. It is not unlike the feeling you get when you have an early start to your day. You feel motivated and full of potential and possibility with the whole day ahead of you. The baptism is a fresh start to life - a squeaky clean slate to a lifetime of possibilities. On this day it was Simeon (and Caleb) getting their fresh new start to their still so new lives. This is their baptism.
A special thank you to the Gray family for allowing me to include a few photos of their family in this post!
