I do know that we were very proud of Julia today.
She did a very long reading at the mass today and was a total rock star. She stood on the step stool at the pulpit and read loudly and perfectly to hundreds of people without the slightest bit of anxiety.
Julia is a seriously picky eater, honestly, she has major food/taste/texture issues. It's really bad. Anyway, we were so afraid that she would gag on the host and spit it into her hands and we would have to change churches at the very least, possibly change religion but she did it!
We came home and had a lovely little brunch with immediate family and a few friends and in a little while we're going out for dinner. The 1st Communion girl picks Outback Steakhouse...yum!

Congratulations! We have one year before we hit our first First Communion, and my daughter can't wait. She's been seeing pictures of friends at their First Communions and has been oohing and ahhing over the dresses and veils. "I want to do that! I want to do that!" I keep telling her "It's not just about the dress, ya know" Hmmm .... I'm guessing we'll be having a similar conversation in about 20 years ... :)
Congrats!
congratulations!
I'm 42 and remember my 1st Holy Communion like it was yesterday.... The Communicants sat together, separate from the parents. Well, the host got stuck to the roof of my mouth so I stuck my finger in my mouth to work it loose and my Dad saw me from all the way across the church.... not good!
:c ) ah, memories!
Anyway, your daughter looks adorable, God Bless her!
Tell Julia Aunt Debbie and Uncle Bob are proud of her and that she looks beautiful!!
Congrats, lovely pics of youngest one, ooh how they grow so fast, I imagine when mine too were tiny babies, now they wear beads and elegant dresses.Hope you had not only most of the work but a blast too:)
And so you should be proud parents.
She is such a gorgeous girl and I love how her friend and her are not so serious in the photo. Such a special memorible day for you all.
Congratulations Julia.xx
Aww, how sweet! Next year Lily has her Furst Communion. We were admiring the dresses & veils in mass yesterday.
