Blessing From Above


I was so excited to finally have this day come for us!!  I had done quit a bit of searching around for the perfect dress.  I even bought one online, then had my doubts, and eventually decided to go with this dress instead.  This one was custom made and bought from etsy!  I love it and am now very glad I decided to go with my instincts.  We had many loved ones there to make the day spectacular.  I wish I would have gotten some pictures of how her day ended.  She made sure to go out with a bang.  As we were taking family pictures, I felt a few rumbles from her bottom.  When Scottie held her for his turn he literally said "Hurry, she's going to go all over me."  I didn't think much of it.  As we were finishing up, I looked down and saw some weird coloring on her dress.  I examined it a little closer and the deeper I dug, the darker the color became and the louder and more frequent my "oh my gosh" became.  She had THE WORST  blowout.  I'm talking the blowout of all blowouts.  It was both on her front and back, clear above her belly button.  I couldn't even believe it.  Getting her dress off was interesting to say the least.  I had a crowd watching in horror with me as I attempted to put this little lady back in order.  I was extremely nervous that all of her hard work was going to ruin her dress and bloomers. Thankfully we got it rinsed out and spot remover on it before it could set in.  I hand washed it and line dried it ..... then it was good as new.  What a way to end the day!
Her Father gave her such a beautiful blessing.  He always brings me to tears while helping me to feel the spirit.  His way with words, confidence and calming voice always make it such a pleasant experience.  Good job babe!  As they blessed her, she was a perfect little angel.  Thank you Brooklyn!  Lincoln, on the other hand, not so much.  Thank goodness for technology.  My sister in law recorded it for me so I can transcribe it and have those words forever.
