There is something reassuring about standing for something, and knowing what we stand for.
For men and women who are true to themselves and to the virtues and standards they have
personally adopted, it is not difficult to be true to others.
{ Gordon B. Hinckley, standing for something }



First Bath

My mom has the very sweet tradition of giving all of her grandbabies their first bath at home. So the day Zachary came home, my mom came and gave him his first little sponge bath. It's always a learning process for me -- to be reminded how to handle those little ones all over again, and to stand in awe of my mother's amazing gift with children. I think I learned to love and reverence infants from her.

Getting everything ready while Mr. Z howls in the background.

The first wipes are always a little shocking!

A big yawn -- he almost looks relaxed!

Once the hair got wet, it was all over! Such a sad face!
