Landon's baptism was very sweet. Landon was very excited for his baptism day and was prepared and ready. We arrived early so we could take our time changing and not be rushed. We sat in the chapel a while with family and friends. A lot of family, friends and members of the ward were there to support us all. Marcie's Dad gave a great talk to all those being baptised.
As They dismissed us from the chapel and as I was walking Landon down to the baptismal font, Landon turned to me and told me "Dad, this is a fun happy day." It really was. Then a moment later, he said; "I'm so excited to be baptised." I'll alway remember the happy excited look on his face.
Landon was the last to be baptised out of the 4 being baptised in our ward. The room was packed. Landon was right after his good friend Coleman. Landon was right up watching all of his friends get baptised. As we walked in, Landon said, "The water is so cold." It was a little cold. Coleman and his dad, John, stood just outside the font to watch Landon be baptised.
When Landon was 4 and 5, he would throw tantrums saying that he would never, ever get baptised becaused he didn't want to put his head under water. He got over that and did very well getting baptised.
My Dad confirmed Landon - they have a special bond as my dad watched Landon daily until he was about 3 years old.
It was a fun happy day.
