I love this picture! This was the exact picture my children's religious education teacher used when preparing them for their first confession and she read the story of the prodigal son to them... I enjoyed hearing this story at Mass last P.M. it is always "new" to me... each time I hear it.

Tracy, there is a children's song by Joe Wise. It is a touching rendition of the Prodigal Son. Are you familiar with it?

Rosemary, I hadn't noticed :-)
