My boy was baptised!

Jarom's baptism went so well on Sunday, we all had a wonderful time. The chapel was packed, I didn't expect so many people to come. We had promised everyone chocolate fudge cake afterwards, that may have helped.

Jarom had arranged the programme and had wanted people he loved and knew to take part. He asked Tayler (his brother) to speak about Jesus. He gave the most hilarious talk all in his own words which he had memorized. We were so proud. He's a little performer though, and once he knew he had the attention of over a 100 people he was in his element. He told of Jesus being killed by the bad guys, and Jesus performing miracles like walking on the water and calming the storm. He said 'Peace, peace be still' about 5 times by which time the whole congregation were in hysterics.
Auntie Katy also spoke, Jacob Munday, Danika and Jonathan Beale his cousins too. Everyone bore a different testimony about the principles of the gospel. It was wonderful. The Spirit was very strong. Jarom was baptised by Jason and it was witnessed by Tim & Josh Morgan (world's best home teachers!) Jenni Burton and Emma Smith conducted and played the music. Emma played the most beautiful piece of music by Paul Cardall - Baptism. It was wonderful.
Jarom's confirmation was wonderful too and he was given a beautiful blessing. We closed the service with all the men & boys singing 'Armies of Helaman' from the stand. It was truly amazing and all for our boy! How blessed we are to have a son like Jarom. So talented and clever and sensitive too. We love you buddie!
