The Romeril Family: A Name and a Blessing

Theories By Brielle

ROCKS: "Mom I know how Heavenly Father made rocks. He took some wood and pounded it with a hammer, then painted it and put it in the microwave for awhile, then it turned into rocks."

REINCARNATION:"When will you be the girl and I'm the mom? When you die?"

PREMORTAL LIFE: "I think that you and me were some kind of special friends in Heaven and that's why I'm your daughter."

BOYS VS. GIRLS: "Girls have girl parts and boys have elephants."

THE GENDER OF OUR BABY: "We have to have a boy, mom. Heavenly Father knows that we want a boy!"

WHAT TO NAME OUR BABY: If it's a boy, he should be called Shrek, and if it's a girl, Fiona. (Can you tell what's her favorite movie?)

YOGURT: While shopping for groceries the other day, and picking up (the cheapest kind of) yogurt, Brielle announced "Mom, I need probiotic yogurt!"

SEATBELTS: When getting into the car, I reminded Brielle that she needed to put on her seatbelt, and when I asked her if it was done up, she said, "Mom, you are so primitive!"

EGGNOG: "Hey Mom! That is Santa Clause milk!"

GERMAN PANCAKES (Her favorite breakfast): It's like every bite is a miracle!

A Name and a Blessing

We had a very special day as our sweet little boy was blessed today by his wonderful Dad.

I feel emotional just thinking about the beautiful, inspired words that were spoken about Colm's life. A very kind former visiting teacher came over with the words to the blessing that she wrote down for us and I can't thank her enough! What a service, I am so grateful.

We were happy to have several family members join Chad in blessing Colm and we had a nice dinner together afterwards at my mom's home.
