Today was a wonderful celebration of Cameron's First Communion. He and his five classmates having been working towards this goal since September. Their teacher has led them through prayers, first reconciliation, a retreat and much more. We encouraged him along the way and were proud to stand up with him this morning.
Cameron received a lot of support today as those coming to celebrate with him filled two pews. Along with our families, both sets of grandparents, Uncle Phil, and his Godmother Alexia with her husband and three daughters were there to share this moment. The afternoon followed with many pictures, a delicious cookout, lively conversation and many new memories created. Only one minor incident occurred. That was when Cal realized that his Grandpa Cutes did not have to wear a tie. He was sure that he should be tie-free as well. After a little bit of negotiating, we all agreed on a sweater vest and the morning was saved.
Doug and I both appreciated all of those who made this celebration a success. It was just as wonderful as Brett, Cal and Meg's. As this part of our life passes we will look forward to other celebrations to come in the lives of the Heinisch children.
