“I’m a bee,” Bella announced the other day, “Bizz wizz wizz.” (That’s the noise the bees make in Beatrix Potter’s Tale of Mrs. Tittlemouse.)
“Roar, roar!” she growled this morning as I was reading her a book, “I’m a ‘ion.”
Meanwhile, Sophia has learned to blow raspberries and entertained herself by doing so throughout this morning’s mass.
Thanks, Jane, I’d never heard the story about St. Laurence’s tears. (Though of course I remember that he was grilled and his famous words on the occasion.) That’s a lovely addition to the story to pass on to my children. And I’ll always be able to tell Sophie I saw it first because of her.
Shooting star on Monday night? Saint Laurence’s Tears, also known as the Perseids or the remains of Comet Tuttle. Lovely anyway.
