February 2008 - Chinese New Year/Baby Dedication
“Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:6
Chinese New Year (Year of the Rat) was on 02.07 and Baby Dedication Day at church was on 02.10, so we combined both events and Bella wore her cheongsam that Sunday. Bella got all excited when she spotted Aiyi in the audience. She LOVES Aiyi!
Pastor Steve prayed a prayer of dedication for her. Hey, no peeking!
“And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength. And you must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands that I am giving you today. Repeat them again and again to your children. Repeat them when you are at home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you are getting up.” Deuteronomy 6:5-7
”Arise, shine, for your light has come and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.” Isaiah 60:1
Bella was so happy that Aiyi came to her dedication ceremony.
Bella’s enjoying another ride on Ginger in her cloud nine jam-jams (Mommy has a matching pair). What’s so funny, Baby Girl? It was so long ago, who knows what it was!
