What a great Mother's Day! My two little girls received their First Holy Communion, and were so excited to do so. The Mass was completely full, the sun came out during Mass, and the girls were very much aware of what a special day it was. After Mass, we went to the home of some dear friends whose son also received First Holy Communion. I love this Catholic culture of celebrating these milestones in our children' lives. It is good that our children know they are not alone in this journey!
