So I had a first this weekend.

A first.

What kind of priesthood first?

You know, we bless people all the time, right?

We do blessings all the time.

Blessing is a daily occurrence in our life.

But it was my aunt, Auntie Colette and Uncle Harry's 50th wedding anniversary.

Oh, so you got to give them a special anniversary blessing.

Yeah, and it was the first time I got to do that really for any of my family, which was kind of neat.

They're very devout Catholics, and so that was kind of neat too to do that for them and

and see you know old family members although I was I was so exhausted that weekend like I was

I got there and I was I got like three and a half hour sleep that night before I wasn't sleeping

very well yeah and I was and I had a wedding the day before and I was just like up I've been

traveling up and down the island left right and center anyway so I got there it was day before, and I was just like up. I've been traveling up and down the island, left, right and center.

Anyway, so I got there.

It was really nice.

But then I'm sitting outside.

As I grow with age now, I've embraced introversion a little bit more, even though I'm still an extrovert.

And I just wanted to hide in a corner and be by myself because I was so tired.

But then, you know, I'm the priest of the family everyone wants to come talk to me everyone's got absolutely and it was some nice conference it was great it was

really neat but it was really a beautiful thing to be able to offer that gift for my aunt and uncle

they were just so grateful that I could do that for them have you ever done that for family
