Pope Francis I

Religion in my house is Catholic. My husband was Lutheran when we met, but last year he was baptized Catholic.

All of our children were baptized Catholic by the same priest, Father Dikete. We attend church most of the time at my Grandmother's church, but sometimes we go to the church down the street. It's a lot easier to keep my children quiet and in their seats for 30 minutes at 530, than for an hour - hour and a half at 11 in the morning.

So today, as my children played, I could get one at a time to watch but the language barrier didn't seem to keep their attention, I watched CNN.com as they kept the Vatican tv on showing the white smoke...

As we waited, we finally got the name of the new Pope. I was able to find his wiki page and copied his Crest.

I took out most of the color. You can click on the picture and print it out. I have my children coloring it and trying to find out other cute activities to get them included in this historic event. :)

Hope you have fun!
