Actually, I like the one with your daughter the best of all the photos. Artistically, as a photographer all I can say is it says a lot.

Who is the priest celebrating the Mysteries? Is he of the Metropolitan Church or a fill-in?

May God grant your son and your family many years of health and happiness.

Wonderful photos - most particularly, the one of he and Father Philip - the look of absolute peace on your baby's face and the fatherly smile on that of Father Philip, and the photo of your daughter - with such a beautiful look of wonder on her face.
