Blessing Day

We had all of our families here for Ruby's blessing. As usual, Brent did a beautiful job of giving
our baby a name and a blessing.

For the record:
{Ruby Ann Hillman was blessed with a body that would be whole and healthy according to her obedience to the guidelines set forth. She was counseled to keep her body healthy by being physically fit and that it would be strong. She was blessed to stand up for her beliefs and promised that a testimony would develop as she searched and pondered. Her Heavenly Father will be there for her for guidance. She will have an understanding of where she came from and that she is a daughter of our Heavenly Father. She has been blessed with a keen mind and an ability to feel the spirit in order to discern between good and evil that Satan's desire won't over come her. She will develop bonds with her family that she will desire to have for eternity. As she lives a righteous life, she will attract a worthy mate to be married to. Ruby was blessed with a life of happiness and peace.}
It's funny how such little spirits can make you feel so inadequate as a mother. Ruby has brought so much love into our home. I think Satan has tried to mask it with all of the chaos, trying to get me to forget the look of heaven I see in my newborn's eyes. But when I'm still, I feel His great love for me and all His children.
