My wonderful friend, Tiffney, made this beautiful ivory blessing gown and matching bonnet by hand and gave it to us as a gift for Laura. It is gorgeous! She found perfect organic fabrics up in the Bay Area, with super-soft silky liner for baby's comfort. Laura slept peacefully during the blessing (phew!). I plan to do more photographs in better lighting of Laura in this dress and the bonnet next month; our day passed too quickly for me to spend the time I would like taking photos of her. It's not often you get to dress up in a special outfit made by a special person for a special day!
Isn't it beautiful? I am
very impressed with Tiff's talents and her generous heart. Thank you!
My favorite part of this morning, besides the beautiful words of Tom's blessing for Laura, was how happy and proud he looked when he held her up to show the congregation. I know it's an unofficial tradition to do the "baby show", but it was so touching to see how carefully he was holding her and how proud he looked. He loves his babies so much and I love that about him!
