Baptism class

Tonight Michael and I went to a baptism preparation class at the Cathedral. Msgr. Kevin suggested that we try to go while we're still pregnant since we'll probably have our hands full once the baby arrives. We really enjoyed the class -- Msgr. Kevin did an excellent job teaching us why baptism is truly the most important day of Zoe's life ... it's the day where she will officially be an heiress to His kingdom. The day where she will be granted eternal life! I have to admit I never really thought of it that way and I was super pumped at the end of the class to plan for Zoe's BIG DAY. Michael and I want to go all out -- probably have it around the time of our 3 year wedding anniversary. We also had another blessing that evening: Msgr. Kevin offered to have a PRIVATE baptism at the cathedral for little Zoe!!!! He said they don't do that too often but that he wanted to make it extra special for her (and us)!!! How blessed are we, right???
