hayley writes about the baptism of a young girl this past week......
"okay eva was baptized!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
good day we got everything ready and we were all there. i didn´t speak this time but said a prayer. and it was really good. except for the part when they went to get into the font she didn´t want to go. she was crying and just kept saying i can´t i can´t cause she was scared. so we said a prayer with her and she still didn´t want to but then we had a great idea. (the night before she saw my cough drops and really wanted one because here they think they are candy its weird. i told her she couldn´t cause it wasn´t candy and i really did need them so she had begged for like 15 minutes for one the night before.) and since we are above bribing kids we told her that if she got in the font and got baptized we would give her a cough drop and she could even have it in her mouth while since got baptized. so funny but it worked like a charm. we figured out that is the reason that i have been sick for so long is cause we needed the cough drops to get her into the font.
i will send you pictures next week but it really was so great!"
