First Communion

Quinn celebrated her First Communion on April 24th - this past Saturday. It was a wonderful day. I think she had a very special event. The service at church was beautiful. The kids were immaculate and angelic (ha!) looking. The whole thing was just perfect.

I was sitting there thinking - how did I get here so fast? 8 years, just flew by! I was remembering when she was born and then her baptism. I was thinking of her chubby little legs as a baby and then how she followed me around in a diaper with her binky as a toddler. Now, she was sitting here so regal, so still, so beautiful in the fourth row.

The priest gave a fantastic homily about treasure. He related that the greatest treasure on earth is the holy eucharist. I thought to myself, one of my treasures is sitting up ahead and God do I love that little girl. I could not be more blessed in this world. Truly.
