Justin’s Christening Part 1

January 30, 2010

I have mentioned before that a Christening is like a mini wedding, there is a getting ready session where the baby or child gets dressed by God parents and God parents gives baby/child gifts such as gold bracelets or necklace then we hurry to church for mass and then christening is immediately following. Last but not least we head to receptiopn hall to partyyyyy. Well Portuguese parties are always so much fun and one thing that really caught my attention in this event as I stood there and observed because this is what we are hired to do, not to participate in the party but to stand on the sidelines and as my friend Dave says, antecipate moments and there were so many moments around me, people greeting each other, kisses on the cheek, cute little portuguese older men with their hats chatting away about who was winning the soccer game and chatting while waiting on line to get some delicious sea food and loads of appetizers and then of course the dancing. So what I observed the most was this sense and commitment to FAMILY, this is such an important day for them that that really take the time to spend with family, they laugh, they eat for hoursssss and feed the photographers like crazy and they dance and they live and this is what I need more in my life. I get so sucked by the business that it is easy to let the other more important things in my life slip away but I pray to God for wisdom and I ask for forgiveness to my loved ones and then I sit on the sofa and hug and eat and watch movies and maybe even do a little dance. Life is good folks, enjoy it daily. Here are a few pixs of Justin’s Christening and slideshow coming soon. A long post, could not help it!

ajira: What a sweet little bebe. Love the shot with the water on his brow and the one where he's holding the candle. The last one is intense and delightful also. You certainly captured what you described above- there was clearly a lot of love going around at this Christening!

Ruth: Great post, Feuza! What a cute little baby! :)

Marcia: "...and feed the photographers". Well, darling, can you explain this part to me? Did they feed you of precious moments or with food (what explain your recent post in facebook about diet, huh?) ? Beautiful pictures, beautiful story as always.

Marla-Dee: Wow Feuza, these are great and that baby, well, he's just too adorable!
