First Confession.


Last night Tom went to the church for his first confession.

There were about 20 children there from our local Catholic school as well.

Afterwards we went to Hungry Jacks for desert to celebrate. I asked Tom, what has happened to your soul now that you have made your first confession. He said, I have given it a bath. I thought that was very cute. I said, yes, it has been bathed in Sanctifying Grace.

Tom had a sticky Date pudding. He would have had a burger meal too if we let him.

Our sons Tom and Christopher and our daughter Amelia are type one diabetics. We pray everyday for a cure. We do not want one by illicit means though so don't support any organisation that contributes to Embryonic Stem Cell Research.
