Maddie received her 1st Communion this weekend, and I'm exhausted.
I shopped, cooked, cleaned, prepared, primped and pretty-much orchestrated everything. It was like producing a short film. All the actors were here and I just told them where to go and when. I don't think that Martin Scorcese could have done it any better.
Well, everything went as planned. We had perfect weather and Maddie did great. She was very poised at church, even though her little brother was running around everywhere.
It was a nice milestone for her; as she was shown pictures of me, my brother, my mom, my dad, my aunt and grandmother on our 1st Communion days (thanks Gran!)... so she knows that she is carrying-on a family tradition. I think she liked knowing that, and felt special to be a part of it all.
And now we are eating ham for a week.
