Next to the towering stand for the holy water, little Cici looked curiously at her family as the other kids dipped their hands into the bowl. “She will not remember this day,” the pastor told them solemnly, “so it is your job to remind her. To see this for her so that you can tell her when she is older.”
The children giggled, the adults smiled at each other, and it warmed my heart to be there and be a part of something that helped strengthen the strands holding this family together. Lots of love goes out to Meagan as well, for being such a wonderful assistant.
