So my first child, Garrett, has always been hysterical. Many friends have said I should write this stuff down, well who the hell has the time for that? Not me.
Until now! So I will at times post things from both my boys that make me laugh. The most recent came from my son Matthew. After my husband and I were married I converted to Catholicism. I grew up Southern Baptist and you might think this was a big jump but not really. The only really hook for me was the Communion as reality vs. a representation. Matthew however has become totally fascinated with communion. For those of you that are not familiar, we as catholics believe that when the wine and bread are prayed over by our priest it actually becomes the blood and body of Christ not a representation.
OK now that you've had your catholic tutorial I'll get to the feakin point....whenever we go to mass Matthew is always saying "Daddy, you drink the blood?" (pronounced with a great southern accent of bluuud) "Yes Mattie" , "Mommy you drink the blood?"," Yes Mattie"
So the other day we are driving home and we pass our parish, he sees the church and of course says "Momma you drink the blood?", "Yes Mattie", "Well.. you need to eat a little Jesus"
How right you are little man, how right you are!
