We decided a little last minute to bless Cael in May. Last minute meaning we decided on Friday that we would do it on Sunday. I was running around a little crazy trying to do everything I could to make the day perfect. I wanted to have a family party after church so I had two days to clean the house and plan a dinner. I already had a commitment the day before, so I had to run and buy the first blessing outfit that I liked. On his blessing day I woke up 45 minutes late, Cael had a blowout on Casey's khaki pants that he wanted to wear and I had to hurry and wash and dry them. I would've thought the day was going to be a complete disaster, but looking back at the end of the day it really ended up being completely perfect. Cael fell asleep literally 30 seconds before I handed him to Grandpa Jay to do the blessing. Jay gave him the best blessing I had ever heard and it was so special. My dad and a lot of our close friends and family were able to stand in on the blessing. Everybody helped with lunch. I cooked a ham and everybody brought salads and rolls and drinks to go with it. Everyone had a good time. No one noticed that I didn't have time to vacuum my house. All the little things were forgotten and it was the most perfect day. We were so proud of our little boy.
