Part of my boys’ training was to make themselves as unobtrusive as possible: Never rush (NEVER run!!), be dignified no matter what calamity occurs (like an accidentally spilled-over thurible that sets the carpet on fire), and remain reverent under every circumstance.
I do admit to watching them more closely than I should — at least when they first started. I just wanted to see what we had to work on at home. I no longer feel the need to watch them; they know what they’re doing.

I am amazed at how sloppy the girls are. Perhaps, as someone else suggested, kids today are just not disciplined enough. That’s very sad. But at least you did your job! Happy New Year to you.
