Sunday Schooled

When Steele and I got married we promised the pastor that we would live together (and we did, almost exactly one year later). And when we baptized Betty we promised the same pastor that we'd raise her in the Christian church. I want to keep that promise too. Except for her baptism and her cousin's dedication, however, Betty hasn't been to church. I figured today was as good a day as any, being Easter and all, so I dressed Betty up and we went to the College Church. It was not a successful outing. Betty drew many oohs and awws before the service began, but her happy shouts were less adorable during the prayers. We took off during the Peace. We'll try again soon...finding a Lutheran church is one of the many things we want to do when we move to Richmond.

Here's a family self-portrait. We sure are glad to have Daddy back home!
