On Sunday, during the readings at Mass, I tried to get Rascal to follow along with his Picture Missal.  On the page explaining why we have First and Second readings of the Scriptures was a picture of Jesus holding a lamb.  Rascal’s face lit up with the classic “light bulb over the head” look.

“Oh!” He whispers to me loudly, with the air of someone who’s figured out a problem.  “There’s the lamb of God.”

He points at the sheep.  Great.  My son thinks the Lamb of God is God’s pet sheep.
