May Day Baptism

Baptism Day!! What a wonderful day for Arik & Annika. We are so very proud of them for making such a grown-up decision to be baptized. We are so happy that many of the people we love were able to make it to Oregon for such a happy day.

I have to blabber on a minute about my babies. Having multiples is a challenge that only other mothers of multiples can truly understand. It has definitely been one of the biggest, and most rewarding part of my life. I always feel guilty saying that because I am so grateful for this challenge. I absolutely love having twins -- yes, I have felt overwhelmed, tired (no, exhausted) and worn out; but it has also brought me more joy than I could ever express with words. Seeing Annika & Arik baptized today was a day of great sadness and joy: sadness that they are growing up, but joy for the wonderful person each is becoming.
