  2. Yep. Nekkid as a jay bird. The Deacon who did the baptisms gave us the option of dripping water on her head or emmersion. Jer wanted emmersion. I thought, well, if Jesus did it, why not Lydia? Later I found Jer laughing hysterically at the thought of Lydia urinating in the Holy Water and then having the other two babies, going after Lyida, having dirty Holy Water sprinkled on their heads. I'm sure this wasn't the reason WHY Jer wanted her emmersed... but he once the thought of dirty water entered his mind, it didn't leave until AFTER the job was done and the water remained clean.
