Tristan's Blessing

What a special Father's Day.

Today we went to my sister Faith's house to have Tristan's baby blessing and then a family dinner afterwards.  It was very nice to have Nick's parents there as well as some of my siblings and their families.  I was especially excited when I walked into the house and saw Becky sitting on the couch.  I didn't think she was going to be able to come because she had been feeling poorly after chemo, but what a great surprise and blessing to have her be there.  I'm also very grateful for Faith and Ron letting us use their home for such a special occasion, and it was also nice to have Andrea, my brother Jacob's wife, come with her darling children.  Their little boy Daniel is only a year older than Tristan.  It was an amazing experience.  My parents had gotten Tristan a very adorable blessing outfit that he looked so cute in.  And it was very nice to hear Nick bless our little boy.  Being a parent is such a huge responsibility, but also a tremendous blessing.  I'm glad that was how he got to celebrate his first Father's day.  Thank you to all who came and participated and made it such a wonderful experience.
