Rease got baptized this week and we are so proud of her and the decision she made. She has been looking forward to this for months and was so excited when the day finally came. She is such a good girl and has thought a lot about this day and asked lots of questions. I am so proud to be her mom and know that she made this decision on her own. She is a great example to her younger brothers and sister.

We were asked to find a talk and a prayer for the baptism. I asked Rease if she would like to choose who she wanted to do that. Right away she knew that she wanted Grammie to do a talk and Uncle Greg to say the prayer. She also asked Aunt Hayley to lead the music. It was a perfect meeting. And like all Losee gatherings there were lots of little kids running around so it was short and sweet. But when it came time for the actual baptism, the younger kids were so reverent and knelt down in front of the font to watch. They were all so interested in what was happening and there was such a sweet spirit for those few minutes.
After the baptism and while Rease and I were getting her ready, the primary president passed around index cards for everyone that was there to write Rease a note. It was so fun for her to read what everyone had to say and to remember who was there for her special day.
And on our way out we snapped a few pictures with Rease. She looked so beautiful in her white dress.
I love how she smiles for everyone else, but when it's just me and her she pulls this silly face!
