Last night, Kain drew the slip of paper from the Lent sacrifice jar that directed him to write a letter to Maria telling her five things he liked about her. Here's what he dictated to me, all his own words....I just thought it was cute.

Dear Maria,
I love you because you let me hold the guinea pigs sometimes. And I love you because you play with me sometimes. And I love you becaues we play house with the guinea pigs. I love you because we both play with Jack sometimes.
(At this point he stalled out of ideas. I suggested he think of something he liked about Maria as a person instead of just things that she does for him.)
I like you because you are calm and never get in trouble, and I hope you teach me to be like that someday.
Love,
Kain
