Reventon (literally, "explosion") was held today for its 6th year at my sister's school here in the city. And what an explosion it was. I'm so glad I was invited to come (even if there were no mariachis, ahem, Marisa, ahem).
Flat Stanley even made an appearance, sombrero and all:

1- Catholic education and good role models are so important for children today, especially with society and the media throwing all kinds of crazy things their way.
2- I will forever be grateful for my time in Phoenix and how ACE brought me there in the first place. (And, like today, I'll even cry from time to time thinking back on my friends and former students still there - they hold so much of my heart!)
3- God is incredibly forgiving, so I need to not be so stubborn and stop holding grudges for the smallest, most stupid things. (See today's Gospel reading, in case you missed it or had a differently directed homily today.) Gotta practice what we preach, here, folks.
4- Authentic Mexican food really is all it's hyped up to be. (Plus, I learned I really do like refried beans when they don't come from a can!)
Just thought I'd throw that last one in for fun. But it's the truth. For sure.
And now it's time to get ready for my all-time favorite "M" word...
(Just kidding, it's not really my favorite. But I bet you guessed it...)
MONDAY! First full week - bring it on!
