First Confession
My parish today held First Confessions for the children preparing to make their First Communion. Father Peter was telling us all the jokes about cute things kids think and say. Most of them, I've heard before, but not this one.
For a penance a little girl was given two Hail Marys to pray. Immediately the girl whimpered and then burst into tears. "What's the matter, honey?" The Confessor asked. "But..." The little girl sobbed. "But, I only know one Hail Mary."
