Julia's Baptism


On November 22, Julia Grace was baptized at St. Philip's Church in Coral Gables. This is the church I've grown up in. I was confirmed and married here, as was my brother. My friend Enid Lorenzo and my sister-in-law Ceci are Julia's Godmothers, my brother Don is her Godfather. Our pediatrician Dr. Ernie was there too, because his nephew was also getting baptized that day. And of course Julia cried when she saw him. Poor Dr. Ernie. Our new Rector, Mary Beth Conroy, did a great job. Julia didn't make a sound when she was getting water poured all over her head!

My Little Pilgrim


Olivia's Pre-K class at St. Stephen's had a class party for Thanksgiving and they performed a couple of songs for us. Talk about so adorable!! Now I get why there are obsessive parents that try to record every bit of performance, even if it means holding a video camera up to your face the whole performance... I won't be one of THOSE parents...umm... er... oh.
