First Communion

This morning was First Communion. A has been waiting all year for this morning. She got up, felt woozy and had to lay back down. She had a bad case of the nerves. We talked about all the things that could go wrong. She could throw up on the priest when she goes to receive communion. She could go to the bathroom and tuck that back of her dress in her tights and walk around like that. She could step on the dress and rip the skirt off. She could trip and fall on her face. Once she started laughing about all the awful possibilities, she felt better. Luckily, everything went smoothly. A & twin cousin E actually stood next to each other. They were very excited to be together on this important day.



I made the Bible cake with the cake pan that Mom always used for all religious occasions. The color is off in the picture, bad lighting. The icing job isn't exactly what I wanted, but it worked fine.
