It's Never Too Early



This morning, the Sleeping Dragon grabbed my bookmark (pictured above), which contains an image of the Divine Mercy on one side and Our Lady of Guadalupe on the other.  I enjoyed watching her play with it, telling her, "That's Jesus; that's Mary," as she flipped it back and forth.

I let her play until she went from putting it to her mouth to actually chewing on it.  "No, babe, we don't eat --" I started, and then changed the end of my sentence -- "Jesus, when He's in that form.  We eat Him in another form."

Because it's never too early to teach about the Eucharist, and I don't want to be spouting heresy to my child!
