Rebecca's First Holy Communion

Rebecca made her First Holy Communion today.  Truly, there are no words to describe how I feel.  More than anything...to know Jesus now dwells forever in our daughter's heart, and she really understands what that means...how can you express that?

Since I'm at a loss for words, I'll just let the pictures tell you everything.

 The day was beautiful, Rebecca received the Body and Blood of Christ perfectly.   We are so happy family and friends shared our special day with us, and we owe so much to Ms. Katie and Ms. Valerie for preparing Rebecca so well.  She was calm and reverence at Mass, but she did say one adorable thing Sunday morning:

"Mommy, I feel famous!"

I said (laughing), "Sweetheart, you can be famous for now...today is all about you!" 

"While they were eating, He took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and said, 'Take it; this is my body. Then He took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, and they all drank from it.  He said to them, 'This is my blood of the convenant, which will be shed for many.' "  Mark 14:22-25
