Katie's "Bathtism"

Katie was baptized at church a few weeks ago as a sign of God's covenant promise of grace. The whole family stood on the stage along with the other families participating in the baptism and kept a close eye on Abby. Although she did not spontaneously break into song or holler out "where's Jeff?" or begin undressing on the stage, she did wave and holler out several times "Hi, Popop" & "Hi, Mimi". For a week afterward Abby would frequently grab Katie's hand and excitedly say close up in Katie's face, "Katie you got bathtized!" Then one night when Katie and Abby were taking a bath, Abby suddenly leaned toward Katie's little tub and dumped a cup of water on her head. It startled me, and I instantly told her "No!" and demanded to know why she did that. She responded by saying that she was bathizing Katie.




Don't be fooled... this next picture is Abby, not Katie!
