"Life is just like an old time rail journey ... delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride." Gordon B. Hinckley

Kynzee’s Baptism Pictures

I took Kynzee down to the temple to take her baptism pictures. This was such a special day for her to wear her pretty white dress and go see the temple. It looked like such a beautiful day but it was a windy cold day, we had a hard time getting pictures without Kynzee’s hair blowing in her face. We were at the temple for about an hour and managed to get some beautiful pictures of my sweet little 8 year old daughter. She looked so pretty in her white dress. Kynzee was so excited for her baptism day and taking these pictures made her even more excited. I love that I can take pictures of my kids and spend special moments like this with them. Seeing my little girls in their baptism dresses or brides getting married or babies getting blessed in beautiful white dresses makes me think of one of my favorite songs. I hope my girls always remember how special their white dresses are.

 

What Heaven Sees in You

Sent to this earth
You were saved through the ages for this day
and time
Child of great worth
Child of promise, daughter of the Divine
Pure and holy in a little, white dress
You were held in a circle and you were
blessed
And the Father looked down
And the angels surrounded that place
They knew the truth, all that you could do
And you will, too, if you have eyes to see
What heaven sees in you
Dressed in white once more
Making promises to follow in God’s way
So much lies in store
For the little girl who enters at the gate
Pure and holy in a little, white dress
You were led into the water and you were
blessed
Repeat Chorus
Do you understand who you are
Part of the Father lives in you
If you continue on this path
Every promise God has given will come true
Heaven on earth
In the house of God, so much fills your heart
and mind
Woman of great worth
Woman of promise, daughter of the Divine
Pure and holy in a long, white dress
You promise forever and you are blessed
And the Father looks down
And the angels surround that place
They know the truth, all that you can do
And you do, too, ‘cause you have eyes to see
What heaven sees in you
Will you have eyes to see
What heaven sees in you

Absolutely beautiful! I wish so badly that I had thought of doing before the baptism photos like everyone seems to be doing now. I just think it's such a GREAT idea!
