Baptized

I have been so busy that I have not had a chance to post what an awesome day I had last Sunday--on November 30th. I WAS BAPTIZED!! I was sprinkled as an infant and then again when I was in junior high, but it had been on my heart for a long time to get "dunked". It was so neat as an adult to declare Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. Tim Lundy is the pastor at our church and a friend of ours--I thought that he was going to baptize me, but he called Richard up front and Richard was the one who actually baptized me. It was a wonderful experience. The kids were there too!!
Later that day when we were at lunch, Richard told me a cute story about Cooper. He had told Cooper that Mommy was getting baptized and Cooper asked what that meant.....Richard told him that it was Mommy showing the world that she believes in Jesus and that Mommy would get to go to heaven. Richard said that Cooper immediately got a very worried look on his face and said "is she going to heaven right now?" Ever since my Dad died we have had a lot of talks about heaven. Cooper knows that is where his PawPaw is and he always asks when is PawPaw coming back. We tell him that PawPaw is not coming back, but that we will get to see him when we go to heaven. So I guess when Richard told Cooper that I was going to heaven he was worried that I was going now and I that he would not see me again. He is such a sweet boy!!
