At Mass last night, for the feast of the Immaculate Conception, I was explaining to 3 year old daughter (as I do at most Masses) what happens at the Consecration.
"Watch. Fr. Shawn is going to change the bread into the Body of Jesus. Listen for the words."
She obediently turns her gaze to the altar.
I use the same words for the wine as it becomes the Precious Blood.
When the Consecration is over, she turns to me and in her loud 3-year-old "whisper" says,
"Mommy, Father Shawn has POWER!"
