January was a big month for Ethan. We've seen his first wobbly attempts at crawling and standing, we've seen him nearly choke on his first few bites of table food (I don't think he's quite ready for it yet, to be honest!). And we've finally dedicated him to the Lord. A few weeks ago we had a small baby dedication ceremony at our church with about 20 of our closest friends in attendance, and the pastor who married David and me.
I don't know why it took us so long to do so. We knew we wanted to do this, because if there is anything we can pass on to our son, it is knowledge of and faith in Jesus Christ. But the months wore on, and then the holidays rolled in, and before we knew it, Ethan was soon going to be one year old and we hadn't done a very important and symbolic thing. I am glad we finally got our act together!
