So my little David will be 3 next week and he's been incredibly adorable lately. He spends most of his days shooting webs at people (because he IS Spiderman), playing in the sand/water, as well as making lego creations (in my hair mostly).
A few weeks ago, at the behest of little Miss Lucy, we held "Church Camp" at our house. On the second day, due to an illness, fewer children came, so David got to join in. He LOVED it. Part of the day was "playing Mass" and he insisted that he concelebrate. 😀 Later that night, he was sitting on my lap during supper when he announced to the family his future vocation. I was trying to get him to make his way to his own chair, when he picked up his fork with a piece of broccoli on it. He said: "I'm gonna eat this, then I'm gonna grow big, then I'm gonna go to church and be the Father!" When I told my mom the story on the phone the next day, he heard me and started running around the circle in our house yelling, "I'm gonna be a priest!" He's stuck with his decision (so far), and when I asked last week if he wanted to come to daily Mass with me, he responded, "Yes, and I will ask Father Adam if I can be the Father with him, and he will say, 'SURE!'"
