We are learning #17 of First Catechism.  We had gotten a little stuck on #16.  Q: 'Who were our first parents?"  A: "Adam and Eve."  CJ always answers, "Adam Eve, Dada, Mama."  This is not because he is confused and dazed at the conjunction junction.  My husband insists that we do not force our children to say things they do not believe, so I simply say, "Adam and Eve" and explain why that's true and move on, which is why we're working on #17. 

Yesterday I acknowledged that he was uncomfortable with that answer, but it was still "Adam and Eve".  He responded in his most heartwarming way, "I say 'Dada Mama' because I LOVE Dada and Mama."  I gave him a hug which turned into about 160 seconds of wonderful bliss of his head on my shoulder.

Our younger ones had a hard time grasping this point also. Sometimes I think , "well that is one will just expound upon more when they are better able to comprehend"....
I really enjoyed your blog today.
Stop by mine for a visit sometime.
