Apollonia's Baptism

Hello all! Your missing in action Blogger here dropping in to say hello and let you know I am still alive.
I have been busy this week working on an RFP response for the new call center I am building. On top of that we were planning for the Baptism of my Youngest daughter, Apollonia. For the Appolonia fans, the following are some pictures from the Baptism.

I have to say, and as Boyd would say I have no objectivity about this, but I am sure Rogue will agree.... She was beautiful!

She slept through most of the ritual, right up until the time the priest poured the water over her head.

She was a brave litte trooper, not crying even when the water woke her up. She just grabbed my arm and looked at me like, "Dad, what's going on here."

I am not Catholic, but I am raising my kids as Catholic out of respect to their mother and the culture here, while explaining to them the differences. Jean Carlos has already made a decision to become an evangelical Christian. I figure when the time is right, Elsie and Apollonia will make up their own minds...

And the following is my favorite picture from the set...

She is beautiful, David, and I wish you, her, and all of your family well.

Keep them all close, even if only in your heart.

She is so beautiful! You really need to just pop her in the mail and send her to me. Fed Ex could have her here in just one day! ;)

She is just too cute! Thanks for sharing this with everyone. Ya know, everything we debate is just talk; Family is what is important.

Thank you all for your comments. She is pretty damned cute if I do say so myself.
