Weekend watching

Although maybe we should have watched a different movie in honor of today's feast day, last night we watched Molokai: The Story of Father Damien, which was recommended by a friend.  The 3 yr old fell asleep quickly, but the other kids were engaged, and the 5 yr old was fascinated by what he initially called the "leprechauns." I hope the boys were inspired by Fr. Damien's example, although it is easier to identify with Dr. Clayton, who visits but can't stay on the island.
