Mitchell Donald Clayton Mathieson.......
I wanted to mention that on Monday morning, before we left Hawaii, we were able to baptize Mitchell on temple beach. In our church we baptize at age 8 and since this was Mitchell's birthday we were hoping to be able to do it. Knowing we had to be at the airport early that afternoon and having to still drive down to Honolulu, we weren't sure we could........but we were so grateful we made the time. The Wilsons joined us and we had a little service beforehand. The girls sang "I Like to Look for Rainbows" which they have sang at every siblings baptism so pretty special to hear it at our last little one!
This sacred, special experience was the perfect ending of our holiday. It was touching to have our whole family gathered together........I hope Mitchell will always treasure this memory, and remember the love that surrounded him!
