Belen's Blessing Day


Sunday we blessed Belen. It was also my sis-in-law's farewell talk so it was nice to have so much family there in spite of the awful weather. Bryan's mom made her blessing dress...isn't it so gorgeous?!

The blessing itself was very special. Bryan had been having a hard week. He has been so physically depleted that he was having a hard time feeling the spirit, and up until the day before, had even been contemplating having someone else bless her. I am SO glad he was up to it. The blessing he gave her was beautiful and she was promised some amazing things. The three that stuck out to me the most were a love of the hispanic people, the gift of healing, and he told her she would be very involved in Family History and temple work.

She is a special little soul, and I feel so blessed to be her Mommy.

I love watching Bryan hold Belen. He looks at her, and rightly so, as though the next moment she will be the lovely age of .....7?
