Bobby and I have worked fairly hard at having a Christ centered life. Sometimes I feel like we are really getting it and other times like we're so off the mark. With Julia we focus mostly on Jesus, acting like Him, being close to Him and such. We have mentioned and discussed sin, but it is not our focus.
Julia makes two sacraments through the Catholic church this year, Reconciliation and First Holy Communion. Tuesday began her first catechism class of the year. That evening, Bobby returned with all three kids. As they were coming to the dinner table, it was a flurry of talk about how their new teacher seems, what school friends are in their class and such. Julia was very animated, worked up almost. Her teacher told them the story of Louis, the saint, who fell from grace only to become the evil, Daredevil. She said she just didn't understand why God would create him. I told her that was a longer conversation and politely corrected her. I told her the correct names are Lucifer and the Devil. She said she was just more used to the word daredevil and would call him that instead.
