Sunday May 3, 2009 was Wyatt's First Communtion. I think he was a little nervous about the big day, but he was also very excited. Wyatt has done an incredible job in preparing for this sacrament. He has a good faith in God, one that he takes seriously. The mass started with all of the communicants walking in, then mass went on as usual. After the homily Wyatt was one of the children to read a petition, he did a very good job. I think he was a little worried about reading in front of everyone, but couldn't wait to be up on the alter and use the microphone! After communion he said that the host wasn't so bad but the wine was terrible! LOL! Let's hope he still says that 15 years from now! After communion they went up to the alter and sang a song for us and then were presented with their First Communion certificates. It was a very nice mass. After that we came home and had dinner with Grandma Edstrom, Auntie MaryAnn, Auntie Nancy, Uncle Mike, Mom, Dad and Jaxon, followed by cake. Wyatt recieved a ceremic cross that opened up and held a very nice rosary, money and the a Bible in a cedar box that was given to my mom by the American Legion in Memory of my father. This meant so much to me and Wyatt, a true heirloom!
It was a great day all around!
