Yesterday we went to see the Catherdral in Bamberg. We've taken to lighting prayer candles whenever we visit a church, and having a small private moment as we do so. As Eleanor and I walked away from the candle stand she slipped her hand in mine and asked me "Is orange Jesus's favorite color?"

"I'm not sure I know Jesus's favorite color. Why?" I said.

"Whenever we light the candles," she said, "They're orange, and I thought maybe they were orange because it was his favorite color." 

"The candles are orange because they're made out of beeswax." I told her, and I didn't even giggle once.
