Darin gave Lauren a beautiful baby blessing during our Sacrament Meeting on Sunday. She looked so sweet in her blessing dress and slept peacefully during the entire blessing. Darin felt inspired to blessed her with strength to be an obedient Spirit and to be a follower of Christ. He blessed her to stand for righteousness and with the strength to be different. He also blessed her with faith and virtue, and a desire to keep the commandments and receive the blessings of the temple. It was a tender moment for both of us as we felt the overwhelming love our Father in Heaven has for Lauren and recognized the great responsibility and privilege that is ours to love her, teach her and guide her back to Him. I am eternally grateful to be a mother in these last days and to have the opportunity of raising these four valiant Spirits. As each one of our children has joined our family, the Spirit has testified to me that they were meant to be a part of our eternal family. I am so thankful that Families can be Together Forever!
