But this IS pretty funny.

Ave started CCD, every sunday in the school year, OUCH - in 1st grade. Now she's in the next year & they make their communion in May. We RARELY go to church - she's been maybe 4X in her life.

Today we went to CCD at 9am, but i had forgotten to turn the damn clocks back, so we were REALLY there at 8am ... so, we went to Mass.

1/2 way thru Ave says "Mom? Are we Jewish?"
So i say "no, we are Catholic" ... & SHE says "What IS Catholic".

Oh boy!

That's what the CCD class is for!! Teach one all about Catholic guilt LOL. At least she's in CCD. My X went to Catholic schools and was totally against putting the boys in CCD. So they didn't do it. Now... X drags S16 to mass like he's some devout Catholic. I just think it's the guilt over all the hurt he's caused. I really should try going back. I actually think confession is a great concept. Admit one's failings, say you are sorry and promise to do better, make amends through penance. Now I just have to figure out if I'm still a Roman Catholic as I was raised, or a Byzantine as I have been since marriage.
