Mother's Day and Samuel's Dedication

This Sunday was Mother’s Day and they usually do baby dedications at church so we decided to dedicate Samuel. Jamie’s family (Andi, Dan, Jenn, Bryan, Hazel, and Gus) were all able to come down for the weekend to join us in celebrating and some family time. Sadly Judah developed an awful cough Friday night and coughed all night long, so between that and Samuel’s feedings I was wiped out and not good for much Saturday morning. They left me in bed (glorious!) and all headed to Grandma’s hotel to swim in the pool. I joined up with them for lunch and then the girls headed out to pedicures while the boys chilled at home. Jamie got Judah to sleep a little, which was good because his best friend Charlie’s birthday party at Pump it Up was at 1:45. Judah had a blast in the bouncy houses and on the slide. I even did the slide and it was pretty fun. We got home and the Johnson clan decided to head out on a spur of the moment adventure. They invited Judah along and so Jamie, Samuel, and I were left to have a last minute, impromptu date night to PF Changs! We all returned home having had great times, you can’t plan this stuff sometimes. Sunday we were up bright and early to head to church for the 8:30 service. We chose this verse to dedicate Samuel. It is the same one we used with Judah but we really liked it and it is our prayer for all our kids.

Micah 6:8

He has told you, O man, what is good;
and what does the Lord require of you
but to do justice, and to love kindness,
and to walk humbly with your God?
