Porter's Blessing Day!!











What a wonderful spring day...the perfect day for a baby blessing!  Porter Thomas Matthews was blessed by his daddy, Allen, today in our ward.  Porter has such proud parents.  He looked so cute in his little white outfit.  He wore the same shirt Miles wore for his blessing!  He outgrew the outfit I was going to put him in.  He is Porter the porker!  He is so big!  

How blessed we feel to have been given the privilege of raising a choice spirit of our Heavenly Father.  As a mom, I am so grateful to have the Priesthood of God in our home to bless our lives and the lives of others.  Porter's blessing talked about being healthy, both physically and spiritually. 
It also spoke of being worthy to obtain the Priesthood someday and being worthy to go to the temple.  It reminded Porter of how much his family loves him and how our home is a home of love.  I really liked how the blessing told him to always remember that he is a child of God.  A good reminder for all of us.
We love you Porter and look forward to the times ahead.
