Athea Fluckiger Baptized

    Athea Fluckiger became an official member of the church on June 4 when she was baptized by her father, Jymard Fluckiger.  (Family on left)  It was exciting for her to have her grandparents present for the baptism.  (Pictured on the right)  They are Shawn and Liz Kirkley and were once members of the ward.  Athea's mother Maria came up with an idea of how to pass the time while Athea and her father were getting dressed after the baptism.  She gave everyone in attendance a little card on which they could write a message to Athea.  Her mom reported that "She just loved it.  It made her smile so much." Some of the notes were written in cursive, which Athea couldn't read, so her mother read them to her and it was delightful for both of them.  What a good idea!
