Shots from the biggest day of her life (so far)...
And one of Emma and my husband - because I heard from a reader recently who worried that my husband hasn't been appearing in my blog - it's just because he doesn't really like to appear online...

About Me
- WANTED, Carmen, mom to the Masses, for dangerous undertakings inside and outside the home. Last seen with her partner The Hubster, and six accomplices (Nikolas 19, Allegra 17, Mackenzie 14, Gabriel 12, Emma 9 and Riley 8). This fugitive is considered armed (with epi pens and inhalers) and dangerous, especially when she hasn't had her morning coffee. She is particularly difficult to recognize due to an 80 pound weight loss (size 18-20 down to 6-8!), and has been known to hide beneath large piles of laundry. She's a fan of running races, has her Black Belt in Muay Thai and can be found reading, training Crossfit, boxing or running to the store for milk and bread. And coffee. Always the Coffee.
She looks beautiful! And...you probably don't want to hear this...mature. Particularly in the first photo. I still think of Emma and Riley as being like 4 and 3.
I didn't realize First Communion was such a big deal. In the Episcopalian church, you can go up to the altar for a blessing at any age, and the first communion is just whenever your parents decide you're old enough to take a wafer and a sip of wine. I remember my dad made me wait until I was 6 for the wine, so that was a slightly big deal. Confirmation, though. Ohhh, the hours of classes and the white lace.

She looks lovely. God bless her and I'll be sure to say a prayer that the Blessed Mother keeps her close to her heart.

Aw she looks beautiful. I was wondering do people give the child gifts on this special day? Over her it's tradition to give children money for communion and confirmation. Therefore I dread this time of year as it costs me a fortune.
