The Holy Spirit

Have you ever seen the Holy Spirit? For Catholics, the Holy Spirit is equally as important as God the Father and Jesus the Son, but much more difficult to put into words. Represented by a dove, the Holy Spirit is what gives us faith. It's what comes when we're baptized. And what you feel when you know God is near.

And to me, the Holy Spirit is this kid. He's not perfect but man is he awesome. I look at him and smile. And in his First Communion suit he is also so handsome and proud.. 

 He completes our family in ways incomprehensible. So different from the other three. The lover and the peacemaker and the physical one and the one that wears his heart on his sleeve but hides the hurt from everyone.

 His proud smile. He took his First Communion very seriously, and wanted to learn all about it, and was very proud to know what the tabernacle was.

 Max with Fr. Nate.

 Wait... what? Yup, that's Max.

These boys will have equal influence on the other... for good and for bad!

Love you Max! I'm so very proud of you!!
