It's all perspective . . . a child's train of thought . . .

I was attending a special Mass, one time, in honor of our Lady of Guadeloupe. A friend was making a video tape of the event and asked if I would watch her five year old daughter during Mass. The little girl was interested in all the excitement, especially when I told her the Bishop was going to be there. Finally the procession started and the child watched the altar boys, priests and finally the Bishop march down the aisle. She turned to me and said, "How come they get to wear costumes?" I explained they were called vestments but I don't think it sunk in as she went on to muse, "I was an angel for Halloween!"
