I would be uncomfortable with my child making an altar regardless of the intent to pray to it.<BR/><BR/>It's lovely that she now knows so much about hier grandma, though!Cyndiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01160008003292716249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3304614128451703316.post-73645117703926053982008-10-29T21:16:00.000-07:002008-10-29T21:16:00.000-07:00That's very interesting.

What a great family home evening lesson that made though. <BR/>I too, need to be better at having FHE. Every time we do, I'm always so thankful that we took the time to do it.

It is a very spiritual holiday for Catholics in Mexico.Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00838997136573083008noreply@blogger.com
