Joseph's baptism day turned out really nice. For once, we arrived at the church with plenty of time, arranged the food, filled the font, took a picture...a much different experience than James' baptism two years ago! (James was baptised with many others his age, the program planned by the stake. Joseph's was entirely planned and prepared by US. :)) We missed our extended family, but were supported by friends in the ward, and even our next-door neighbors from Poland, who are not members. Afterward, while eating, we asked everyone to write a message to Joseph in his journal as a special keepsake.
We are happy for Joseph. There was a special spirit at his baptism, and we know that Heavenly Father was pleased that he chose to follow Jesus, and be baptized and confirmed!
I wish I had more pictures to share. These are all we have, and not very good quality. Our camera was broken and we had to use the iPhone.
