The setting of Phoebe’s Naming Ceremony was perfect at Old Forde House in Newton Abbot. All the family were there to wish Phoebe heartfelt wishes for a long, happy life. Other important people made promises to Phoebe including four Guiding Parents, Grandparents, her sister and brother and her parents.
An old African saying states ‘It takes a whole village to raise a child’. In our complex world, even the most loving and capable parents benefit from help in raising their children.
I asked all her family and friends:
Do you welcome Phoebe into your lives and promise to support and encourage her in all she does?
They all replied YES!
