Autumn's Dedication

Autumn was dedicated at our church, Rolling Hills, in Nashville. The lesson that we learned was the one should have your child dedicated when they are too young to walk or speak. Autumn refused to be held and everytime we attempted to she would perform the all too classic "baby back arch techinque" and squealed like an angry stuck pig. We were forced to relingquish her to roaming all over the front of the church where she made full use of her freedom. Eventually Taylor was not to be outdone and also wanted a piece of the action. At one point Taylor was playing my keyboard and Autumn was going for someone's Starbucks and then on to my guitar. At the time I was not really that pumped about the situation, but looking back it was really funny. After the service our friend Michael Kelley said, "That was the best baby dedication of all time!" It was a bit ironic since our verse that we chose for her was 1 Peter 3:3,4 - "Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes. Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight". Priceless.
