First Communion

This morning, I arose relatively early to braid Mathilde's hair. She dressed all in white, and at 10h15, we piled in the car and headed to church. The ceremony for her first Communion began at 11h00 and lasted one hour. Unfortunately for her, her outfit was light while the church was freezing!
Not surprisingly, a lunch that lasted from noon to 20h00 followed church. The list of guests included Mathlide's godmother (plus her husband and son) and godfather, two sets of aunts and uncles, and her grandmothers. Sadly, Stephanie (Meme) could not make it to the service due to the inconvenience of her wheelchair.
