Kayton's Blessing

On April 11th, we were able to bless Kayton in church. Nate was super nervous, but everything turned out great. We had family come in from out of town just for the blessing and then they had to leave really quick, but we were so grateful for who could come. In the circle was Nate, Bishop Quick, his Grandpa (G-pa) McClanahan, Great Grandpa Nielson, and Bro. Pratt. Grandma Nielson sat with me during the blessing. I am so grateful that my husband has the priesthood and was able to bless and name Kayton. I was a little emotional that day, but I thought I did good. Kayton was perfect throughout the blessing. He whined for a second at the beginning, but then calmed down right away. We were so proud of him and he looked so cute in his little tuxedo outfit. It all seems real to us now that we have gone through all the steps of making him ours. We love our little man and don't know what we did without him.

Glad you survived the day. Blessings are stressful days anyway, we always fret and worry that everything will go perfect, but all that really matters is you and that baby and a beautiful blessing. Call me anytime you want to talk. I heard that things are a little tense right now for you. I'm here for ya! Love ya!
