Today, our home church in Mexico blessed us with a baby shower! Yes, they do have those here. It was absolutely a beautiful time. We had so much fun and were blessed beyond measure!
The ladies had prepared something very special in where different ladies of the church brought different items to give us for the baby along with a verse and special note for the baby or for me that went along with each saying.
One example is that one of the ladies brought a blanket and a card with the verses Psalm 91:1 - 2 and on the card it also said: Baby, like your Mommy covers you with this blanket, God also covers you. You will never be alone because you will always be beneath him. He is your home and in Him should you trust forever. You will never be alone. He is your refuge.
Another was that one lady brought a bib and her note said: You will feed the baby so that he is satisfied and will live and grow. You, Mommy, will help in teaching him to receive the food most healthy and great for his soul which is very simple. You will prepare it little by little until he learns to eat and digest is for himself. This food is the Word of God that he will learn by your testimony.
It was such a beautiful time.
We also had lots of fun playing games! Below is a game in where they had Travis put a balloon under his shirt and then try to peel stickers off his shoes without popping the balloon! It was really funny and he had to wear the balloon under his shirt for the rest of the shower!
In the next picture, Travis is trying to guess how many squares of toilet paper around I am - a million he says!
