Ava's Baptism Song

Ava came to me a couple weeks ago and said "Mom will you sing with me at my baptism?" If you know Ava then you know she loves to sing. If you know me, you would know that this question horrified me. But trying to be a good mother, I said "If you really want to, ok"....I told her we need to pick a song and practice. We looked through, and listened to some songs, then decided on the primary song "Baptism". We practiced a few times then Ava turned to me and said,"I kinda want to sing by myself now" It was pretty hilarious, and I was so relieved I didn't even think of being offended. I'm so proud of her for being so brave to do this "by herself". I love her and her sweet beautiful voice. The spirit was so strong throughout the entire baptism. I know she will remember this special day the rest of her life.
