Pearce's Christening

Pearce was Christened in Oxford at the Methodist church I grew up in last Sunday. He looked like a doll in his gown and did perfectly during the service. We were so proud of him. Grandmama and Daddy Joe had a party for him at their house afterwards.

Pearce is sitting on the afghan knitted by my Mimi (Dad's mom) who passed away years ago. He is named after her mother's family.. the Pearce's
