Scrupulous Much?

This morning as I fixed Little Brother's hair, I sprayed some water on his head and said, "It's raining!" Then I began singing the refrain from "It's Raining Men."

"Mom, it's Lent! You're not supposed to say that word!" he scolded me.

Guess that means George Harrison's "My Sweet Lord" is also out for the next 5 days. At least when Little Brother is around.

Gee, can we do My Sweet Lord on Easter Sunday? :-)

That's absolutely adorable. And fantastic, since I didn't learn we can't say the "A word" until last year (and I'm in my 40's!)

@ Lee, ROFL! I once attended an Easter Sunrise Mass at a very liberal parish, at which the entrance song was "Here Comes the Sun." Ick. Never again.

@ Jeanne, this kid pays attention. And I think his teacher at school must have stressed it--she's excellent. Never have I had a child so ready for First Communion as this one, with this teacher.
