You genuflect, then bow with your tongue stuck out. 🙂
I know Fr. Shane from way back when I was a Protestant and he was pastor in my small town where all my friends were Catholics. He included me in their activities and was a great role model.
Has nothing to do with this article, I know, but I’m just sayin’. 🙂

God Bless their parents with patience and endurance!
What a wonderful but exhausting blessing — five of the same age!
