Though our feelings come and go, God's love for us does not.

Sunday was Miss Maddy's First Communion. What a special day! She looked so beautiful and was so excited and a wee bit nervous about receiving the Eucharist for the very first time. I saw her with a good friend just before they had to line up and they were whispering encouragement to each other!
It was a really lovely day and so wonderful to celebrate such a momentous occasion on one of God's most beautiful spring days. All of a sudden, Sunday was the day the pear trees and magnolia trees bloomed -- so beautiful!
Of course, before we left for church, Mickey HAD to get in a picture with Maddy. That silly Mouse -- he waited in the car at church, but then joined us for dinner afterwards!
