One day a hare said to a tortoise, "You are so slow. I think I could beat you in a race on Sunday." So on Sunday the hare and the tortoise went to Mass with their families. When they got home, there was a letter from the judge asking them to meet him at 2 o'clock in the woods.
Thirty minutes later the tortoise arrived, and he did not disturb the rabbit so he could win the race. So he started back and then the race had only 30 minutes to go on for. So the tortoise did a little bit faster so he could be there earlier. When he got there, the rabbit was behind him, and the judge said, "Slow and steady wins the race." And he got the first place cup, and then they went home. The End.

So these pictures are of the hare's family?
Yes, that is the pot speaking to the kettle. . .
From the way the Mom used to yell at us to hurry up and get in the bus and how I do the same thing, I would say that the pictures are from the tortoise's family.
My kids begin every sentence with "and" as well. Charles' story is much more interesting than Jenny's version of the same.
I'm so glad you sent me a link to your blog...I never had it before. I should have asked. I am excited to read through some past posts. DJ was looking over my shoulder and shouted out "There are the Mays!" He clearly has not forgotten you all.
Hugs and Kisses.
Hilarious! I love how the tortoise and the hare are not only Catholic, but they are family men too.
