Christmas trip (the last post)

Chiara was blessed by her father Stuart Allen Larsen on her Aunt Gigi's birthday January 4, 2010 in the Oakbrook ward in Summerville, South Carolina. She wore a blessing dress made by her Grandmother Cheryl Bruno out of the same material used to make Chiara's mother Genevieve's wedding dress. She was named Chiara Sophia Larsen and blessed to remember the things she learned in the premortal world. She also was blessed to have a good memory and remember the things that she was learning and experiencing now, especially the things her parents taught her. She was blessed to have good examples of people in her life and to find good friends. She will be able to see people for what they are and not compromise. She also was blessed to hearken to the teachings of the gospel, to prepare in all aspects of life, and acquire all the talents the Lord has in store for her. She was blessed to one day be sealed to her future family in the temple. We feel so blessed to have Chiara in our family and think she is a precious daughter.
