Connor was baptized and confirmed a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints by his Dad on January 7, 2012. We are so proud of Connor and his decision to be baptized. Makayla sang a song she wrote titled, Fear Not Doubt Not. She did awesome, the spirit was so strong as she softly played the guitar and sang about our Savior. Gavin gave a talk about the holy ghost and brought the spirit to the meeting too. He did an awesome job also. How blessed Darren and I feel to have such great children who are willing to share their testimonies with others especially their little brother.
                                 
                                 
                  
                        
                  
Connor and Mom. This little boy of mine (actually big boy) tugs at my heart strings daily. It is hard to see him growing up so fast. The two of us have been through so much together. He has been my little buddy, I miss him during the day while he is at school and worry about him constantly. I am so proud of all of his accomplishments, he has truly risen way beyond what we were told he would be able to do. He is a very determined boy and works so hard at all he does. I am so grateful for all Connor has taught me. Faith, prayer, love, patience, hope, endurance are just a few of the many things he has taught me. The day after his baptism we were at church and I went up to the podium to bare my testimony. Connor was sitting up on the stand by the bishopric so I sat next to him while I waited my turn. Connor turned to me and said mom are you going to cry during you talk. I smiled and then did as he knew I would cried all during my testimony. Connor you are awesome, I love you so much.




                  
Grandpa and grandma K with Connor at his baptism. Connor had a ton of family come to his baptism. We are grateful for the support of our families on such a special day. Grandpa and Grandma Dibb were not able to be there in person because they are serving a mission in Bolivia. We felt their presence there and know they are where they are suppose to be right now. They are blessing the lives of so many in Bolivia and we are so proud of them.
