a good day

A good day, a big day. Henry's been getting ready and waiting for his First Communion for a long time, and was eager to get his suit on and get going. So we celebrated our fellow with great gusto (even if kidney stones and an ice storm meant fewer guests...) and watched his "Amen" with a lot of happy pride.

Henry is a thinker. He is passionate, to both ends of the spectrum... a lover and a fighter. He is kind and thoughtful. He likes that his middle name is the same as the Pope. He says one day he might like to be a priest. And so this day was good for him. A long wait for the best prize.

We love you, Henry Francis.

And while we were at it... we celebrated Janie's birthday with family at the same time. Cake for everyone!
