First Communion

Gio made his First Communion today. Congratulations!

The Manual

Last Spring Vinny made his First Communion. Unfortunately, it was one of those things he didn't really enjoy doing, saying we forced him to do it, is putting it nicely.

However, all that churchy business inspired Gio. He's a regular Jesus freak now. He loves going to church, praying, and eating the donuts afterwards. Actually, as I recall that was Vinny's favorite part.

Now that first communion is complete, we have been slacking off of our church going. But Gio is always here to remind us to pray before and during our meals

"Let's say a prayer," says Gio.

"Aye yai yai," complains Vinny.

"Daddy you say the prayer," orders Gio.

"Come Lord Jesus....."

"Daddy that isn't how it goes," interrupts Gio. "I need to go get my Manual. I'll be right back."

"I'm starving!" I say. "I hope it doesn't take him long to find the manual,"
