The blessing

When I was touring Arlington House, the boys waited outside. Even with their forbidden stroller rule, a steady flow of people came in and out. I saw three little nuns walk in speaking Spanish. Once again reunited with the guys, I was told by Garrett that they'd met Max. One of them was especially delighted with him, oohing and ahhing. She touched his cheek and then blessed him.

At least, that's what Garrett thinks. We're not sure because she was speaking Spanish. Anyway, she said something and then made the sign of the cross over him, so we'll hope it was a blessing.

Nice, huh?
