Max made his First Communion on Cinco de Mayo this year.  May 5th, 2018.  I am so proud of him.  I am also proud of this accomplishment as the parent, that I have provided him a faith foundation in his life.  We are still attending church and religious education classes, to strengthen this foundation, but I didnt realize how important it was to me until I saw Max take his first communion.  Go us!

A couple of weeks ago now - I've become so bad at keeping things current in this place - I had Theo baptized.  We are a catholic family, and there are many people in the world that disagree with this faith, but its the faith I was raised with, and its the one that has provided me strength and support in all aspects of my life.

During Max's baptism, I had the feeling of 'this is right'.  Again, I had it during Theo's baptism. 

So kids, you'll hate CCD, and you'll argue with me about going to church on Sunday mornings, but when you are adults I'll know that you'll have a faith, a foundation to your being.  And that is what is most important.
