28 things i love: day 13

reconciliation ceremony

andrew had his reconciliation ceremony at church today in preparation of his first communion in may.  he had a retreat in the morning with his class and then we joined him for the service.  he was so cute, and nervous while he waited for his turn to talk to the priest.  we talked to him and he joked with a friend.  and then he walked into the room and we wondered what he would say to the priest.  it was one of those moments where i recognized that he was growing up and would have to handle himself without us.  we assume it went well, he came out said his prayers and got his certificate.  one step closer to the big day.

in other news: we went to the movies with our friends, the barons, to see 'the lightning thief'.  jordan has read the entire series and had been counting down the days to the release of the movie.  it was ok.  we saw many flaws and felt it was a little flat.  but jordan and rebecca really liked it.   sofia was a bit freaked out with the monsters but was smiling throughout.  afterwards we went to dinner at poquito mas where the kids explained the differences between the book and the movie. love that we have such great friends to spend time with.
