We usually do a special dessert and prayer time. I have done coloring pages, etc, since the kids are so young. As they grow older, we'll do more. We didn't grow up with this tradition either, nor did we celebrate baptism days growing up. But it has become a fun family tradition! We make sure to tell the kids when other family members are celebrating their patrons' feast days, too. <br />We received a few notes and a very special phone call on the Feast of Saint Henry in July and also so on the Feast of Saint Blaise in February. A wonderful way to remember our son.Mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05537616411264726552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3257516927675289859.post-43371170454312822782009-08-22T13:49:38.661-05:002009-08-22T13:49:38.661-05:00Wow!

We usually have a special dessert. Sometimes it's more (like a coloring page or special prayer), sometimes it's less (because I didn't plan ahead) ... Since neither Greg nor I had this custom growing up, we are still figuring out what our tradition will be in our own family!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01530114345117741249noreply@blogger.com
