We were having Maddie's religion class this evening and I was explaining the importance of the Bible, how God inspired its books, the varied types of subject matter and so forth.

Before I could say anything, Maddie jumped in:
"We're Catholic: we're supposed to have a lot of Bibles."
That's my girl!
