Mom's Day
Patient, impatient, a quiet moment, while church goes on inside.
Baby to be baptized after the May Day festivities. She is sitting on her grandma's lap. Her hand holds her showing the difference in size from her hand to hers.
Children have gathered flowers for the crowning of the May.
Children in their first communion dresses carry flowers as the procession begins.

In One Straight Line.......
Because of a serious rain threat, the ceremony takes place inside the church.
The photographer did not check her flash connection and thereby did not get any good pictures inside the church.
However this little boy just begged to be shown. His torn jeans, along with an angelic expression while holding flowers, it is a heart tugger.
So Pretty In Yellow! The Crowning of a statue of Mary.
My Mom, on mom's day!
The statue of Mary and the girls who crowned her.
