Today he first came running with the Holy Water; he has always loved to be blessed with Holy Water, usually at bedtime, but pretty much any time of day. I believe he has poured the entire bottle out on himself more than once… 🙂 This little bottle was given to Jeff by one of his fellow parishioners who visited Lourdes.

Then he ran back and got the St. Francis triptych that Laurent brought back from Assisi for her godfather, Uncle Jeff, and wanted to know all about it. It is small and just fits his hands. Well, he’ll learn much more about that great saint some day. For now, he is content to know that it is St. Francis, with two angels. And tomorrow he will ask me again, and I will tell him again. I am re-learning the great truth of life so often recited by Pastor Steve Rutt back in our Westfork Church days:

Repetition is Essential.

I homeschooled four kids all the way through high school and then fostered/adopted 7 more children. I am wife to a very smart mathematician; I dabble in photography, write and sing, paint in bright colors, and love being Catholic!
