    How about a poem ?

    (Child's Name)

    Lord, bless this tiny infant,
    Who is brought to You today,
    And teach those precious little feet,
    To follow in Your way.
    Lord, bless the baby's parents, too,
    And with your loving care,
    Grant them all the happiness,
    A family can share

    (example above) write your own, google for one you like or adapt one.

    prayer for serenity

    god grant me the serenity
    to accept the things
    i cannot change,
    courage to change
    the things i can
    and the wisdom to know
    the difference.

    or

    A baby is God's opinion that the world should go on
    smile --- it makes people wonder what you are up to.... ;) :cool:

    If you google christening poems then loads come up try this website bit cheesy but may give you some ideas although if you could write one yourself it may be more apt. p.s. the music is a bit cheesy on this website but try some others as well!

    what about a poem and then an explanation of what your daughter's name(s) mean?
