Joe celebrated his first Ash Wednesday yesterday! A couple days ago I asked on my facebook wall if babies could get ashes and many people said yes! I guess I've just never seen a baby with ashes on their forehead. I held Joe's hands down because I was afraid he'd do one of his spazz-out-hands-in-the-air moves, but he just looked up at Father and stared all wide-eyed and curious! Isn't he adorable?!

Aww, you and your son are so cute! How interesting that he received ashes. During the prayer service I went to, the priest discussed how children who are under the age of 7 (age of reason) do not receive ashes because they are not sinners. I wonder if it is something that is left up to the priests to decide?
Oh, I wish I had thought to take a picture of Miriam with her ashes! Joe is such a cutie!
My babies have all gotten ashes. Helen was only 6 days old! even babies are "...dust and to dust they shall return" :)
Cute pics!!!
Cute pics!
This is one of the cutest things I've ever seen. Yay ashes on babies!
And slightly off-topic, you look great. I love your smile.
I love that picture of the two of you! You are absolutely beautiful and that boy of yours is beyond cute. What lies beyond cute? Well, I don't really know but he's definitely there. My Zelie approved. ;)
