Baptism

It is a beautiful spring day, and today my cousine and cousin Loes and Koen are being baptised. We want to be fresh when we get there, so my mama brings me to the swimming pool in the morning. All freshened up we go.

It is very quiet and peaceful in the church. The only sound I hear is myself. I am drinking a bottle, and it tastes so good I am groaning. Then I am finished and ready to play with the knee benches. In the meantime I say "Blablablabla", as I always do in my own confident way. My mama is acting a bit nervous, she forces banana in my mouth, even gives her phone to play with. But the people don't mind: they are laughing.

But Loes and Koen are baptised and then I can run around in the big place. And I get cake and chocolate and crisps and the whole family is there. My diapers are changed in the open air in the forest around us. When we go home, we feel very peaceful and happy.
