I really want Irene to be a committed Christian like Zoe. Roy & Zoe keep predicting that Irene is going to surprise us all.
Me, “Irene, when you commit your life to Christ, you can be baptised.”
She, “Oh.”
Me, “Though you will need to tell the whole church about how you have now decided to to follow Christ.”
Irene, just realizing this, said very crossly “Mum, why couldn’t you just have baptised me when I was a baby?”
