Mason's blessing was beautiful. My parents, David's parents, Ashley, Randall, the Boothe's and Tu's were all able to be there.
His blessing:
Our kind and gracious Heavenly Father, by the power of the Holy Melchezidek priesthood, which we hold. We take this infant baby boy in our arms and present him to give him a name and a blessing. And the name which he shall be known is Mason David Bailly. Mason you have brought our family much joy and much peace. And you bring with you the sweet spirit that all infants bring to remind us of both innocence and tremendous courage to come into this world at this time to show us the faith of our forefathers and to give us hope that all will be well. Mason you have been prayed here by ancestors who have gone before you and by your parents here now and you are loved by all of them. You are particularly loved by your brothers. Let them be an example to you of righteousness and courage. And let you be an example to them of your great faith and humility. Mason you have been blessed with spiritual gifts that you carried with you for the eternities before you came here. May your quest in life be to find them, to use them to bless the lives of those around you. You have the ability to heal and to listen and to bring peace to the broken-hearted. This is a much needed gift in this day and age. Satan will wrestle constantly against the peace you will bring. May the power of the priesthood keep you safe. May the ordinances of the temple be yours, those of the endowment, of marriage, and eternal family. May the blessings of the administering of angels that is part of the Aaronic priesthood be manifest in your life. Mason always remember that you are loved and this love is powerful. That it is real and that it matters. And that the words that you speak will be recorded and be a beacon of hope. These blessings and all other blessings that your Father in Heaven knows that you need, He knows you well and He has blessed and will bless with them through the power of His son, Jesus Christ. We leave upon you in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
