Thank you so much for sharing your lovely honoring ceremony and letting us into a special space in your life and heart! I hold ceremony close to my life, as I try to make every day ceremonial in its own ways, I come from Native American descant so honoring myself, family and our Mother Earth is a part of my life. I love that your mother is catholic but still honors and puts her heart into the ceremony... Cheers to life and the never ending flow of energy!
