Big and Little
On Thursday night, at the community eucharist, *A* served as an acolyte for the first time. She carried the cross (the fancy word for this is the Crucifer) in the procession and was truly amazing. I was so nervous for her, but as soon as I saw her coming down the aisle, I knew she was going to be fine. She was so confident leading the procession and looking around at everyone bowing as she passed. So then, instead of being nervous, I was tearing up. How she can be so big and yet so little all at the same time?

so true! she has looked so much older this year, but compared to the cross she seemed so little! yet what a big girl to be able to carry that heavy cross!
My baby, I too was tearing up. There is something very "adventy" (early) about have that little-big girl bear the cross
