The Twins' Baptism
Dad's brother, Paul, and his wife, Mara ("M"), are in Omaha with their twin boys. Today was their baptismal day. For Fr. Paul, it marked the first time he has ever baptized a set of twins.Veronica and Sophia were wearing matching dresses, even though they got dressed miles apart (by different moms). Julia and Dad didn't make it because Julia was sick (see other entry). Emily was a no-show too, because she had a sleepover with her friend, Rachel.

Congratulations Cousin Paul and Mara! God bless you and the new babies....twice the blessings!
Love,
Cousin Barb

It must be a different generation; back in the day, the baptism of a pair of cousins would not have been missed for a mere sleepover.

I remember when my brothers and sisters were baptized on Oct. 8 (except for Neil). That usually meant getting out of school for 20 minutes to hike over to the church for the baptism.
I distinctly recall eating a cheese sandwich in the cry room at Holy Cross before Ann was baptized (on a school day).
