This morning Steven and I carried the Advent candles up at mass. I was a little nervous but he did great!
We arrived at mass and Margaret our Parish administrator was waiting to let Steven practice with the candle. He walked with it across the back of the church all by himself so we thought he'd do fine carrying it up the aisle. So we waited for the opening hymn and got in line in front of Fr. Glenn. He gingerly walked up the aisle and stood in front of the wreath. Fr. Glenn said the opening prayer and began the advent candle blessing ... then poof ... Steven blew out his candle!
We might be waiting for Jesus' birthday but, Steven, those weren't birthday candles!
