Today Tom received his First Communion. It was a lovely mass and I got a lump in my throat watching him go forward. He bowed very reverently and then received. I have lots of photos and will upload them later.
We have had Tom's God parents and 4 of their children here for the weekend as well as my mother and Steve's mother. Tom's God parents have left this afternoon and tomorrow Steve's mum and my mum will drive back to Adelaide.
It has been a great weekend and I am sure it will be a wonderful memory for Tom in years to come.

Please pray for a cure for Type One Diabetes
Our sons Tom and Christopher and our daughter Amelia are type one diabetics. We pray everyday for a cure. We do not want one by illicit means though so don't support any organisation that contributes to Embryonic Stem Cell Research. Click on the photo of Tom and Christopher to read about why I am against using Embryonic Stem cells for a cure.

Tom's and Christopher's insulin pump
New book: Faith Quilt.
All proceeds from sales of "FAITH QUILT" going to "Casa de Amor Children's Homes in Bolivia" and "Sarah's Covenant Homes in India" Two truly extraordinary organisations that take in the most needy children and give them a place of love and security to call home.
