One Sacred, one semi-Sacred but mostly Secular.
First, the sacred. I brought Baby Francis to my holy hour this morning, as is always the case when I don’t express milk so that when he wakes up my husband can feed him.
Gotta be better about doing that.
Except…if I hadn’t taken him to my holy hour this morning, I would have missed out on hearing him talk to Jesus. He did, you know. It was toward the end and I was getting ready to leave. I stapled Francis into his car seat, tucked his beloved blankie in around him, and turned him to face the illuminated monstrance so that I could say my final prayers.
Francis…was…captivated. He gazed at our Lord and he started to babble. For several minutes the two of them talked, while I asked God’s blessing on the rest of my week and my holy hour replacement looked on with a smile.
That’s the first cool thing. Here’s the second:
(My personal favorite is The Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy. What’s yours?)

Jennie C. says
That's a sweet story about baby Francis. Penelope used to "leap in my womb" whenever we went to Mass, and I've seem 'em all talking to the angels. š
Elisa says
Aww, how adorable. I love that baby Francis story.
Jamie Jo says
Awwww, that story of Jesus with baby Francis…I love it.
Kerry says
That's a great video! And I love that you take your baby to adoration with you–that is beautiful.
Tina says
Even babies need time with Jesus! š
