(Sidenote: I just listened to a devotional by Elder Bednar and he showed a little clip of President Hinckley speaking at Ricks College. I forgot how much I loved President Hinckley and those devotionals at college.)
On August 12, 2017, Benny got baptized and received the Holy Ghost, and Truly received her baby blessing! The day started out just like any normal day but as soon as I sat down in the chapel, I was overcome with emotions. I suddenly missed Noah and having my whole family there for this wonderful day. It is something I still am getting used to and don't quite know how to handle those emotions. I had to leave for a little bit to collect myself and breathe, and as soon as I came back in they had called the children getting baptized up on the stand. I saw my handsome Benny boy up there with his gentle smile, and I instantly felt so much joy.
How could you not look at him and be happy? The kids sang "A Child's Prayer" together which I loved. The baptism was great and then we blessed Truly. This was a moment we never had with Noah. I soaked it all in and thanked God for blessing us with this day.
