Sandi, your adivce is excellent and well taken. Especially the part about telling her of the Baptism. I don't have a date yet, our church has to schedule it, should I wait to tell her? It may be two or three months before they can get me in. We attend one of those rather LARGE churches...

The boys don't know yet, but they will. I want them to take note of how important this is to me and hopefully they will see how important religion should be to them. Over the last four months, as I have been working through this with myself, I have seen some very positive changes in their behaviour towards attending church. They used to have to be literally dragged there, now they are more receptive. My goal is to get them to want to be there and begin their own spiritual growth - something that really never happend for me. I want them to get a head start.

I will let you know how Thursday goes. I am worried as well about the effects. But, If it doesnt work, then we will scratch it and move on.
