Brooke Baptized

Well, we couldn't have asked for a greater Mother's Day gift than this.  Brooke was baptized today!  She asked Jesus into her heart about 5 weeks ago and after several long conversations about it, she convinced us it was indeed the real deal!  I'm amazed by this awesome little girl God has blessed us with.  She has been telling the world about Jesus ever since she was saved!  She has told her teachers, principals, class mates, friends, cousins, and just about anyone else that'll listen.  She is even telling her friends who claim to have been saved that they need to be baptized.

Brooke played Upward Soccer this year.  Out of 400 kids, only one boy and one girl received the most special award possible... the "Most Christlike" award.  When presenting the award, they said that the girl who won this year was saved during the course of the soccer year and most people knew about it.  Why?  Because she was telling everyone!  That's why this year they chose Brooke for the award!  I just can't express how proud of a daddy I was.  Meanwhile, mommy was crying her eyes out and beaming with pride. We can all learn from Brooke's example of how to reflect the image of Christ to others.
