max gets baptized

Maxwell was baptized today by his big brother Wilson. Max said he felt warm and happy. His Mom and brother Cooper spoke, his brother Marcos said the opening prayer and his sister Eliza played a special musical number. Max had so many people come to his baptism to show him how much they love him: The Shepherds, The Stones, The Hainsworths and all his cousins and aunts and uncles. It was especially nice to have Grandma and Grandpa there. Max described his baptism this way: When I was baptized I felt like I was a new person. I felt spiritual and like I could help a lot of people." One memorable thing about Max's baptism was that his Uncle Cameron forgot the baptism suit so he had to wear an adult white jumpsuit. Luckily, all the extra fabric went under the first time. We are very proud of Max and his choice to be baptized. Max is a very careful and aware boy and will be able to learn to follow the Holy Ghost because of this special gift.
