thoughts of sister-cousins

shared by Marlo R. Beall, her sister

This weekend, our family has the joy of celebrating a "super sister-cousins baptismal weekend". Tomorrow, Ate Raisl's daughter, Abigail Rose, will be baptized in Concord, CA; on Sunday, Theresa's daughter, Penelope Rosario, will be baptized in Brooklyn, New York.

Carla and I have the honor of being godmothers to Abigail, while Cyn Cyn was honored to be chosen as a godmother to Penelope. We decided to have Cyn Cyn make the weekend trip to New York. I am certain that Cindy and Zoe, our sister-cousins in heaven, had a hand in ensuring that family members could attend both baptisms.

Cyn Cyn travelled with Leland on Thursday. The arrangements for their flights and the trip itself both went incredibly smoothly. Although a good amount of luck and timing was involved, I know that Cindy and Zoe were watching over them - and all our family members - as they travelled.

We're thrilled to have Abigail and Penelope continue to expand our family, and are excited to have them continue our heartwarming sister-cousins family tradition.
