Mummy asked M to be one of the Boys Godmothers: M's reaction was wonderful and just showed we'd made the right decision.
So today we went to Church with our friend S, a Christian who until we had lunch with her and husband MC a couple of weeks ago had always thought she didn't have any Christian friends.
We all found out at the start of the service M and S were going to be up there with us. The boys were a bit of a nightmare or was that just me being in the spotlight.
Having being blessed the boys sat down on stage to read their newly acquired bibles and horror of horrors the Curate asked some questions about our family. I'd previously been warned about this, but bang, stage fright!
I was to realise later this is one of the best ways of getting to know everyone. What we really wanted to get over was my participation in Start.
This is a course for those new or returning to Christianity and gives you the opportunity to talk through all those questions and doubts. More importantly it makes you realise it is OK to have doubts and that everyone no matter how mature a Christian they are has doubts.
That's a really important aspect of our faith to understand. Everyone has doubts, but we believe inspite of them, that is faith. To believe or unbelieve without doubt is knowledge and no one currently alive has knowledge of God.
