Macrina the Younger (aka Kirsten, aka Momzilla), checking in. Along with the newly illumined Andrew (Andrew of Crete), Owen (John of Novgrod), Jeremiah, Irene, Photini, Ryan John, Lauren Elizabeth, and Haley Anne.
Owen was brought kicking and screaming into the kingdom of God (and upside down, for large portions of the service, since he found it amusing and it was better than him screaming), but he made it through.
I am so incredibly proud of Andy, who made it through the whole service (4 hours!) and said communion was "yummy".
I am so grateful to my Lord and Savior, and to his mother the Theotokos, to Father and the people of my parish, and to all of you, my brothers and sisters in Christ.

But I survived fine (hubby even wondered where I mustered the volume on my voice since I'm so soft spoken).
May God grant you many, many years! My chrismation will be in July. I've waited so long, you guys won't be able to get me to shut up about it when it happens.
