Love those pictures of possible audience expressions!<br /><br />I get the wine drinking before performing thing...When I was in college, I took a poetry class once, and the professor set up a poetry reading on campus. We couldn't get out of it--it was part of our grade. And we had to read our own poems! In front of people! I've never been a big drinker...but I would be lying if I told you I didn't have a couple of beers before I took to the stage!!<br /><br />There was a May 1 First Holy Communion at our church, too. I love seeing those little ones, all dressed up and looking like angels as they receive for the first time. <br /><br />Happy Mother's Day! :)Laura Pearlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16108081477711821273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3943060470929085549.post-3037863526611046222016-05-04T09:50:09.962-04:002016-05-04T09:50:09.962-04:00Allison, :0 I figured you'd appreciate the Lul...Allison, :0 I figured you'd appreciate the Lularoe connection with the picture outfit, lol!Tiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05772700828819881141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3943060470929085549.post-54446784303175298732016-05-04T09:48:01.986-04:002016-05-04T09:48:01.986-04:00Hahaha love the photo backgrounds, many of them ar...Hahaha love the photo backgrounds, many of them are so random!

There are a few kids that make their First Communion at each of the five weekend Masses. We start on Divine Mercy Sunday, and they usually last through the entire Easter season. I love seeing them all at Mass every week! <br />The only Mother's Day plan I know of is going to my cousin's First Communion.... and probably moving all the things to the new house.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10139976694880320665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3943060470929085549.post-77062018603975625732016-05-03T15:45:33.858-04:002016-05-03T15:45:33.858-04:00Hi Melanie!

So I guess they were running low on May weekends. ;-)<br /><br />So sorry to hear about your dear grandma.

It seemed early to me too but I'd guess it was affected by Easter being early this year.<br /><br />On Mother's Day's my whole family will be at my Grandma's house. It will be bittersweet since my Grandma is on hospice but nice to be all together.Melaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13906826460232914998noreply@blogger.com
