First Holy Communion

We feel so lucky that Peter and Tyler were able to make their 1st Communion together. The boys looked amazing and were both very proud of themselves onces they had received their sacrament. It was a wonderful day!

It is no secret that my beautiful son had some major issues with being the center of attention at his First Reconcilliation and was very nervous about his 1st Communion. As Father Stu explained to us - right now First Communion is about the intentions of the parents. At this point Peter is not making a decision to be a catholic - Bob and I are making it for him and we are so grateful for the love and support of our family, friends and church family. Peter and Tyler both made their First Communion on Saturday in a very moving church ceremony at Saint Elizabeth Seton. They had a children's choir and many lovely touches that made the day special. Peter got up and made his First Communion with the help of his wonderful teacher Mrs. Fleck. She held his hand, stood with him and let him know that she was right there with him. For his part, Peter was reverent, respectful and, as he put it, "Happy on the inside!" He struggled to get up and do it but once he had received his sacrament he was so proud of himself. It was truly a wonderful day for Bob and I to see Peter take another step in his life as a Catholic - we are so blessed.

Our Angel - looking so happy after his 1st Communion!

Peter with two people who made this day possible by being wonderful role models for him. His amazing godparents - KK and Uncle Pat.
KK was late to a friend's wedding so that she could be at the church for Peter's special day and for his part, Peter could not sit still until he had KK in full view!
I have many more pictures - this is to tide you over until I have more time to post them!
GNM - ILY!
