Blessing Day

Sunday, April 27, 2008, Joseph Adam Hardy Black was given a name and a blessing by his father. In the circle were Fred, Jon, Matt, and Pat Cox. It was an incredibly special occasion for our family, and I am again in awe of the blessings of our Heavenly Father upon us. I am at a loss for words in gratitude for His tender mercies.

Among many other beautiful words, Chris mentioned in the blessing that we were so happy for the chance to become reacquainted with Joseph and that we felt as if we had known him all along. I'm so thankful to my husband for being the worthy man he is and for being an amazing father to our children.

Joseph looked pretty spiffy in his blessing outfit.

1. Children sent from Heavenly Father
2. The Holy Priesthood
3. The privilege of naming our boy after his two Uncle Adams
