ASH WEDNESDAY!!!!!

We went to church last night for Ash Wednesday. It was a really good service and Taylor was such an angel!! In the Catholic Church.. you get the sign of the cross on your forehead.. in ashes.. to celebrate the start of the Lenton Season. Taylor got her first "ashes" on her head last night and it was so funny. She flipped her head around when they did it (because she is so sassy!!). This year... I have decided to give up sweets for lent. It has already been tough because I really LOVE anything sweet.. especially CANDY!! and Valentine's day is coming up... and you know it's candy galore at school!! But, I am very happy to do it. I tried to snap a pic of Taylor with the ashes on her head.. but by the time we got home.. the ashes were almost gone and she was really tired!! We are so proud of her.. for being so good at church last night!! That's probably the BEST she has been yet.. AWAKE!! It's amazing how the smallest things mean SO much!!
