Child of God

My 10-year-old daughter was Baptized on Sunday.

Her father is Jewish. I am, by a circuituous route, Spiritual, but not "religous." My parents both celebrated their confirmations -- I was Baptized Catholic, but somewhere thereafter things just fell apart.

I feel good about letting Madison choose her religion. She comes home from CCD with stories of God and Origjnal Sin and Jesus and I can't help but to allow my heart and mind to open just a little bit more. I love it that my daughter is teaching me things I have, until now, had my mind and heart closed to (Uh, oh... ending w/a preposition... "to which I have had my heart closed").

It was a good weekend. Thanks Laurie, for driving here from CANADA to be with us. And I'm glad that we all got to enjoy the wonderful brunch at Summer Kitchen together.
