The kid's got funny bones.

Today, Thing 1 endured an extended disquisition on Lateran eucharistic theology (not his native interpretation of that ritual), prompted by a display of ornate ciboria at the Bargello Museum. Tonight as we waited to place our dinner order, the table next to us was given a basket of crusty bread and a small jug of house red. He grinned at me and said: "Dinner is served. It's a miracle!"

Love it! We always bring our kids forward to receive a blessing from the priest when we receive the Eucharist. One Sunday evening, when my older son was about four, he passed me a roll at dinner and said "the body of Christ, the bread of heaven." To which I could only say, "Amen."
