April 27, 2014: St. Thomas and Thomas Jefferson

At church this morning Katherine was fidgeting. It's a nearly 2 hour service on Sundays so I totally get the fidgeting.  Heck, I fidget.  So does Stephen.  She picked a rather crazy time to do it though - during the Gospel reading. I gave her the Reading and had her track & follow it as the Priest was reading. Afterwards we sat down to listen to the Homily and I told her she needed to use good listening ears to learn more about what the Gospel was about.

She listened. 

It was about St. Thomas and how "doubting Thomas" started.  She was listening so intently. 

She turned to me, as the Priest said "Thomas" for about the third or fourth time, and whispered, "Is he talking about Thomas Jefferson?!" 

It was really hard not to snort laughing. And to answer her. And then explain to Stephen what happened - which was followed by her getting annoyed with me because I told Stephen. 

After church we decided to try a new breakfast place that served Crepes and local coffee.  The coffee was amazing. The Crepes.... Well, Katherine (who was most annoyed that we were eating "ridiculous crepes for BREAK-FAST?!!!) she thought hers was the greatest thing she'd ever eaten. She had a Cinnamon Roll crepe.  Cinnamon, crepe, cream cheese and icing on top.  Fortunately she didn't drink any coffee. She didn't need to be jacked up any more. I don't think we'll be returning there but it did get 1 out of 3 votes YAY. 

The afternoon was spent prepping some dinner for tonight and tomorrow and doing some more crafts on the lawn.  We had dinner with a friend visiting from NJ, catching up on the goings on in his world. 

Now to get ready for another busy week.  Hope you had a great weekend!  We certainly did!! :)
