I Would Remember That!

What I do remember is standing at the kitchen sink when Jordan said it.  It was February 28.  We were discussing the dedication of their baby.  The exchange went something like this --

Him:  We didn't tell you, you guys were the godparents?

Me (eyebrows furrowed):  No.

Him:  I'm sure we mentioned it when he was born.
Me (excited, but looking puzzled):  No.  I would have remembered that!

Him:  Of course we want you guys to be his godparents.
Me (trying not to cry): We would love to be his godparents. 

I was so overcome with emotion, I was speechless.  We're Noah's godparents. 

Me (yelling into the next room):  Tim!  We're Noah's godparents!

On the outside, I'm sure I was smiling.  Inside my head, I'm practicing.

Our godson is visiting for the weekend.

We'd love to come to your thing, but we can't.  We're attending our godson's thing.

Oh, him?  He's our godson.

Would you mind if our godson joined us?

In retrospect, it makes perfectly good sense they would ask us.  No, really.  Besides his parents, I'm pretty certain we have more pictures of this kid than anyone else.  He's only about 8 monts old, and we have taken at least a 100 pictures of him.  If they didn't ask us to be godparents, it would just be creepy.  So, they had to ask.
