Mass with a Toddler

Mass with a toddler is a whole different experience.  Many times it is more like being at the park and chasing Alexandra around for an hour than it is like praying in a church. At least at the park I can sit down for a few minutes.  Last week Alexandra went to the nursery for the first time.  I bit the bullet and left even though she was upset.  Of course shortly after that she was fine.  This week there was no nursery.  Argh.  Just when I was getting ready to actually use it!  Alexandra would be so loud and I said "We have to be quiet"  she would smile and put her finger to her mouth and say very loudly "SSSSHHHHH!"  What can I do.  We got through it.
