I was baptized today!

By the friend I'm living with right now, in my pastor's swimming pool (very cold swimming pool I might add, but minus the snakes in the river we considered using...lol).

WOW!

And while I was standing in the water trying to catch my breath after being dunked in that cold water....lol My daughter decided to be baptized, no dry clothes along or anything. I got to stand on one side of her, my friend on the other, and baptize my daughter.

I do feel very, very different. I know why I was doing this, a few reasons, but a change inside of me wasn't even something I thought was possible from something so simple. Something has definitely changed, for the better. It's awesome.
