An Eternal Family

On October 10th we had the amazing experience of sealing baby Ryker to our family. It was a very special day. We arrived at the temple at 9:00 with Ryker. Jax came a little later with my famiy. We dropped Ryker off with the nice temple ladies. I was a little nervous because he has started the stranger danger phase but he seemed to do just fine. After Luke and I got all the paperwork figured out we got changed and got to sit in the Celestial room while we waited for our families to get there. Our sealer was very nice. He told us that he felt Ryker was a special spirit with great things in store for him (we very much agree). He also told us we had many spirits in the room supporting us on this special day. Then they brought in our sweet boys. I was a little nervous about Jaxon who gets a little rambunctious in new situations. They had told me that he didn't need to be in white so I was surprised when both my handsome boys come in wearing white, and my heart melted just a little. Jax is calm and smiling as he goes to sit on Grandma's lap and Ryker hangs on the best he can during the sealing and doesn't start to cry until its all over. I have had several people tell me that I'm missing out on some amazing experiences by not being pregnant, giving birth, etc. but I feel truly blessed to get to have this amazing experience with my little family and I would not trade it for anything. I was so grateful to spend this beautiful day with family!
