Dear Blaine,

December 22nd of last year was a very special day for our family! Daddy and Mommy were able to take you to the temple to have you sealed to us. We were sealed in the Ogden, Utah Temple. When we got to the temple, Nana took you to the children's waiting room and Mommy and Daddy went to do some paperwork and get dressed in our temple clothes. We were then taken to a special waiting room where we waited to go to the Sealing room. While we were waiting, we said a prayer to thank Heavenly Father for blessing us with you and to thank Him for allowing us to go to the temple to have you Sealed to us. Then we went to the Sealing room. All of our family and friends came into the room and we waited for you to come. Nana got you all dressed in your handsome, white outfit and brought you into the Sealing room. You were so alert! You were looking all around the room at your family and friends. I know there were other people there you saw that we couldn't see. Once you were finally Sealed to us, Mommy and Daddy cried because we were so happy. You were FINALLY ours for Forever and nothing could change that!

Grandma and Grandpa Swenson
Nana and Papa Thompson

Blaine, we love you so much! We can't imagine our family without you. We waited a long time for you to come to us. It was worth the wait! We are so grateful to Heavenly Father for sending you to us and we are grateful to Katie for her sacrifice in placing you with us. We are grateful for the Sealing Power and that we were able to have you sealed to us for Forever! Never forget how much we love you. Thank you for being such a sweet little guy. You bring so much love and happiness to our family. We love you!
Love... Mommy and Daddy Ü
