Journal entry by Kim Buechele

Those of you who know me well know that I remember random dates. Today was one of those days...45 years ago today, Dad baptized both Colleen and I. She and I sang a duet, Just As I Am, while we were in the water tank with Dad...
If you would have told me then that I would have neither of them today, there’s a good chance I may have punched you 😉.
To get through today, I think of the lady baptized right after us. Dad leaned her back into the water...Lo and behold, she came up out of the water without hair!!! Dad scrambled for her floating wig! Colleen and I were doing our best not to giggle!
I hope all of you take a moment this weekend to remember a special time where you laughed with my sister...she would love that!
