Our Father in Heaven, by the authority of the Melchizedek Priesthood which all of us hold, we lay this infant in our arms to give her a name and a blessing, the name that she will be known in this life and in the church is Reese Ann Wood. At this time, Reese, we give you a blessing from your Father in Heaven. Reese, we bless you with a powerful mind, that you may have the desire for knowledge, that you may be smart and quick and be able to make decisions that are righteous according to your Heavenly Fathers plan and his will. Reese, we bless your body that it may be a powerful tool, that it may be strong and healthy as long as you take care of it. We bless you to know that exercise is important. And to search out areas that may treat your body well and keep you healthy. Reese, we bless your spirit that it may be joyful at all times, that you may be a light for those that are sad, that you may be a beacon of happiness to those that are around you. We bless you with the desire to find out who your Father in Heaven is and your brother Jesus Christ. That you will know their voice and their spirit. We bless your life that it may be full of opportunities to succeed in this temporal world. That you may have the opportunity to search out a worthy son of God and be sealed for all eternity in one of Heavenly Father's temples. We bless you with the ability to discern the needs of others so that you may be of service to them and be able to help them when they are in need. We bless you to be a good sister to your sister Cora. That you may treat her with love and respect and have many opportunities to grow with each other. We bless you that you may be a place of peace for your mother. We bless you with the ability to comfort her both spiritually, mentally and physically. Your Heavenly Father loves you, Reese, and you have lots of people that are holding you up and surrounding you with love. Learn from their experiences so that you may be a strong daughter of God. Reese, we bless you with these things and all other things that Heavenly Father sees fit to bless you with at this time and do so in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Reese was blessed by her dad and surrounded by Great-Grandpa Dick Wood, Grampa's Jeff Pett & Scott Wood, Uncles Kevin Pett, Randy & Max wood and Bishop Carey Woosley.
