San Diego (days 3,4,5) and Naming Ceremony

The vacation's main event was the naming ceremony of our dear Baby Cousin J at his grandparents' house today. It was a beautiful afternoon in El Cajon and all the family and guests were beaming with joy. The ceremony was very special, hearing the history behind his name, how his name came to Auntie A in a dream, and the blessings he received from 3 proud generations. What was particularly striking was the gathering- a house packed with family and friends who love Auntie and Uncle and, almost
instantly, Baby J. The lovely tradition and sense of community were very touching and made me think of how I want that for our Rosie as well.



In other, less-exciting news, the 2 says prior were filled with rain, high winds, and a sick Mommy. But DaddyO and Rosie got in some really good time. It is so sweet seeing them together. They make each other laugh, it makes your heart melt.
