Baptismal desires. . .

Today we went to the baptism of Tate, the daughter of some friends in our ward. The baptism was after our three-hour church session, so the girls were a bit wild by then -- especially Mariah. After the baptism, we returned to the chapel. Everyone was quiet and reverent during the rest of the meeting, except Mariah, who kept repeating loudly, "I want to get baptized, I want to get baptized. Jesus got baptized. I want to get baptized." She did not want to wait another 6 years, she wanted to do it right then! We all admired her sincere desires, but after hearing it for the entire meeting, it wasn't quite so cute!
