Happy Families
The baptism has been completed without fuss. Finn was perfect throughout and didn't fuss when the water was poured on his head. His great Aunt Nancy read a prayer and his other grandma read from the book of Matthew. Through Nancy there is a link to Finn's great grandma, my mother in law now deceased. The best man and a bridesmaid from Finn's parents wedding were also there. I like that sort of continuity in a person's life. Afterwards we gathered in a nearby bar and the extra shows Finn nodding off after a cuddle with grandad the forester. The bottle of whiskey looks good but I doubt I will be around to see it opened. Hopefully Finn's Dad will tell the story of him and I taking up whiskey drinking after reading the Rebus detective novels by Ian Rankin.
