Faith's Blessing Day

Last Sunday, March 25th, we had Faith blessed. My mom and dad flew in for the blessing and we had a big family dinner after. It was such a special day.

My beautiful girl and the stunning heirloom blessing dress my mom made

The blanket was also a gift from my mom given several years ago. It was given as her expression of faith that I would have children some day.

A very serious discussion

My mom made this dress from imported fabric and lace. Each skinny piece of lace was sewn into the dress.


Each seam between all the lace inserts was addressed at least 4 times because of the various things that were done to it.

Unbelievable

My dad even helped. Mom said the project ended up bigger than she thought so my dad would measure and cut lace while my mom sewed,

She's even cute screaming!
