Blessing

I can't believe its come and gone but we are lucky that both sets of grandparents live so close by and got to come for her blessing. She had all her jewelry on, her locket from Great Grandma Rosell, her ring from Grandma Wise, her blanket from Granny, her other ring is Johnny's baby ring from Grandma Rosell. She wore the blessing dress that Granny made out of scraps from my mother's wedding dress that was made for Kim and me, worn by most of the girl grandbabies in my family.

It was a beautiful day full of lots of emotions, especially gratitude.

what a little angel...I love all the traditions. A blessing dressed made by her great granny from scraps of her grandma's wedding dress, that will be something to pass down one day to her grandchildren.

I am sorry I couldn't be there
