This is a very important event in the life of a child, and one which it is the custom to record by printing cards with a holy picture, or more simply a Eucharistic symbol.
It is a tradition repeated every year in the months of April and May, passed on by parents who accompany their children to help them choose their own pictures, often asking if it is possible to reprint the one they themselves had thirty years or so earlier.
And it almost always is; nothing has changed in this sphere, the desire to record this important and significant step for our nearest and dearest has remained the same.
