Day Twenty-five. . .

So the twenty-first was a success. Giles, Wesley and their wives had a good time at our house and the dinner seemed to have been enjoyed by all. Today has been busy, the kids went to a Halloween party at a local church, there is also a costume contest that Jessica has entered although apparently there were two other girls with exactly the same costume so it does not look hopeful that she will win.

Tomorrow is Christopher's dedication and we are again having company over after. Gil's mom and my parents are expected to come and Wesley gets to do the actual dedication at the front of the Church. Tomorrow I will post the prayer that we will be saying over Christopher. How it works is that we will be praying for certain characteristics to be put into Christopher's life. We usually dedicate the children much earlier than this but we have had a lot on our plates the past few years and so it got delayed. Then as I thought about bringing God back into October and making October special I thought a dedication would be really appropriate and so we decided to do the dedication this month.
