Today was a slow moving day. No matter what though, I always feel successful after we say our evening family rosary. One of our many intentions is world peace, I hope our prayers have an effect on the current situation.
My daughter is looking through my make-up case dying to put all my make-up on.
Posco (again, my 7 year old, not Peony’s Posco) is preparing to make his First Holy Communion. I am so very, very proud. He has the cutest little CCD teacher that he really adores, and the feeling seems mutual. She tells me each Sunday “he is a bright young man…” She sends home little lessons-here’s this Sunday’s example:
1.Say the 7 Sacraments in order
2.Know which 2 you can’t receive both of (answer-Holy Orders-Matrimony)
3.Think about receiving Communion. We do not chew the Host. Just loosen with your tongue if necessary.
4.After Communion drink water first before eating in case a portion of the Host may be remaining in your mouth. This is a respectful custom.
5.Next week, we will be learning more about Confession.
I just love reading his weekly lessons because his teacher is very thorough. I remember how excited I was to be preparing for my FHC at this age. We are also excited because after his FHC, he is going to become an Altar Boy. This Mommy stuff seriously rocks sometimes-sleepiness and all.
