Maylie woke up on December 7th really not feeling well. She had red puffy, eyes and was coughing pretty hard which in turn was making her projectile vomit. Honestly, if we didn't have so many family members in town, I would have postponed her blessing day. But regardless of how she was feeling, she was a trooper through it all and still looked so beautiful in her little, white blessing dress!
Such a sweet little girl!
The whole clan...
Our little family of six...
The Call side of the family...
The Cleveland side...
And the star of the show!!
After church, we had a luncheon with all of the family that had traveled to be here for the blessing and Abby even did a little piano recital for everyone's enjoyment.
Her audience in rapt attention!
She even wrote a little song about Maylie for her special day. Here are the lyrics...
"Maylie oh Maylie my sister dear.
You are a close friend to me so near.
You're on your way to heavenly father you know.
You took a step to heaven so close.
Now I hope you'll live the gospel of Christ.
And you will be good and you'll be nice.
You're such a good sister you're such a good sister.
Blessed from Christ
in the power of the gospel."

What a sweetheart Abby is. That poem will be cherished throughout Maylie's life. And, I love the pictures of all your family that came in to see her blessing. She I loved, for sure. Congratulations Dadra. She is beautiful.
