God Parents

Dear Conor,

When you were born your Daddy and I talked and talked and talked about who would be your god parents.  We knew that we wanted to pick two people that would love you and cherish you and would be great role models for you.  So I bet you are wondering who we picked - we picked your Auntie Cathlin and Christopher Case.

Auntie Cathlin

Your Auntie Cathlin is CRAZY fun and loving!  She is your Mommy's oldest little sister and I've loved her since the day she she came home from the hospital.  She is a strong, sweet, friendly, and kind woman.  She loves to laugh and have a good time and is always up for adventures!  She has loved you since she found out that you were coming - though her exact words were "are you sure - or are you just kidding me?"

We asked your Auntie to be your Godmother at your first month birthday celebration.  She was soooo excited that she wasn't sure what to say at first but then she said YES!

Your Auntie was not confirmed when we asked her to be your Godmother but she took classes so that she could be an 'official' godmother to you.  This is the kind of person your auntie is and we LOVE her for it!


We know that your Auntie will love you and take care of you when ever you need her and that is why she makes such a great Auntie and God mother!

Christopher

While a God mother is important - a God father is sometimes even more important because its one of the men in your life that you can trust and to be  not only a role model but a good male role model.  My wish for you is to be the kind of man that holds doors open for women and that you are caring and compassionate while being strong and trustworthy.

Christopher is this kind of man (just ask his wife)!  And we just knew that he would be the perfect choice for you.  We invited Amanda and Chris over for dinner one night and that is when we asked Christopher to be your godfather.  He was so excited and honored to have been asked.

I think your Daddy and I did a great job at picking our your Godparents and now the rest is up to them!


We love you little man!

xoxo
Mommy
