Baptism

This morning at Mass one of the kids from my catechism class was baptised along with three other children. I think there are very few things which bring me greater joy than witnessing a baptism. The children were glowing, absolutely beaming, and just so eager to be baptised. They were truly excited to be baptised and you could see it in their faces (and the fact that they were essentially bouncing up and down as Father was anointing them). O Lord, grant me the faith of a child!
