Sally was chosen to do the reading at her class' Mass. It's a good thing I warned her that her biggest fan might be loud and proud. She powered through with no problem. Meanwhile Mason was SHOUT SCREAMING "Sally, Hi Sally" from the pews!

Then we moved to the family room, where we are protected with glass windows and doors. As Big Fan continued to be excited when he realized she was leading the Communion song.
