Emily's Blessing

Sunday March 4, 1202 we blessed our little lady at church. Abigail wore her new dress from Grandma and Biggs looked like a stud as well. But the star of the party was Emily. She looked so cute. Originally I was going to have her wear Abigail's dress from her blessing, it looked like it would fit. Then days before I decided to try it on her and it was like "fat guy in a little coat." Thus last minute we had to go get her a dress, again thanks to Grandma. We found it at the first store and it was cheap (both to my liking.) Who knew Dillard's had deals?

We were able to get a few pictures before we left for church. So many Family members came to the blessing and it was great. I am disappointed I didn't get any really of anyone else with Emily in her Dress.

 All the Whitworth Uncles (Dan, Curt, Luke) and Grandpa were able to stand in the circle, while Seth gave a beautiful blessing.

 The blessing Seth pronounced on Emily really was beautiful. I think it was the first one where I got tears in my eyes. The spirit was very strong. Here are a few of the high lights of what was said in the blessing....

-Blessed with Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, Heavenly Father and the Plan of Happiness
-Blessed with strength and service, that as she served the Lord she would have a sound mind and body
-Blessed that she will be given  the things she stood in need of
-Blessed to strengthen those around her
-Blessed to know right from wrong, good from evil
-Blessed to stand for the truth and honer her covenants
-Blessed with a kind heart, soft tongue, feeble mind and to uplift those in need around her.

There was much more said an detail given the blessing and there was no doubt the spirit was with us all. But, those were some of the main points.

After church we had everyone over to our house to spend time with one another on Emily's special day. It was so much fun and the food was delicious. Those pics are to come...
