So what if it takes longer when the priest alone distributes? Use that time to make a good meditation and thanksgiving.

Common sense alert. ;-)

Thanks, Murph! :-)

Normally my family sits toward the back in case the baby acts up. By the time I receive, there's just a few minutes to make a good meditation/thanksgiving before Father goes back to the Altar. Last Sunday was my daughter's First Holy Communion so we sat in the third row. How nice it was to have the 25 extra minutes or so while Communion was distributed to everyone else.
