May 17th was a very special day for us this year because it was Stella's baptism! Despite the gloomy, rainy weather forecast, we were blessed with a warm, sunny day that looked like the perfect spring day in New England. As with Mia's baptism, we held the private ceremony at the St. Benedict Abbey in Harvard, a place that is very special to our family, and Father James, who is even more special to our family, performed the baptism. Stella wore the same baptismal gown that mommy and big sister, Mia, also wore, which is adorable, and she was happy and calm throughout the entire ceremony with her godparents, Auntie Linda and Uncle Ralph. We were so lucky to have our friends and family join us - it was a wonderful and memorable day!
