Today is one of my most favorite days!! Ever since she was born, I hoped for a day when I would get to have my daughter sealed to me forever!! As a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, we believe that we can be with our families forever. Through the sacred ordinance of sealing, we can have this blessing for our family....and today was that day!
It was such a special experience to have all of our children in the temple with us for the event. We were all able to participate in Kaylie's sealing. The temple workers were incredible and were so excited to have children in the temple, since most times the youth are only there to do baptisms for the dead, which is in a different part of the temple. Our kids felt like royalty and were definitely treated that way! They had their own special changing rooms and things to do while they waited for Rex and I to get ready. Then we were able to meet together in the special sealing rooms. We all dressed in white. We all felt the Holy Ghost. We all knew that this was God's will for us. He loves us and wants us to be happy and return to Him someday to live as families with Him.
After the sealing, we of course took pictures outside of the temple. Then we went home and had pizza with our family who came to witness this special time in our lives. We laughed and ate and enjoyed the time we had to spend together. Families are a gift from heaven. They are there to celebrate the good times and help us through the bad times. They are what brings meaning to our lives! We are so thankful for all of the love and support we get from our families.
