Life as a Priest's Kid

Priest's wife over at Fear Not Little Flock posted an amazing Q&A about being Catholic priests' kids. They answer such tantalizing questions as "How has being a Catholic Priest's kid affected/influenced your relationship with God?" and "Would you prefer if your future husbands entered the priesthood after you are married? Why or why not?" Head over there right now and read it!

My daughter is still a preschooler and new to the whole PK thing, but she has some interesting responses! Maybe another time, I'll survey other Coptic priests' kids and tell you what they say, too.

What's the best thing about being Abouna's daughter?
Hmm... I don't know. Oh, I know! I get to go in his office!

What's the hardest thing about being Abouna's daughter?
The hardest thing is sometimes he can't play with me.

Would you like to be married to an Abouna? Why or why not?
No, thank you! Because it's not fun.

Who is your favorite saint?
St. Demiana

I'll have her answer these again in the future, when she's a little bigger. I wonder how her responses will change or grow over time.

Her questions to her father about being Abouna:

How long will you be Abouna?
I'll always be Abouna.

Why do you have to be Abouna?
Because God called me to be Abouna and the bishop ordained me to be Abouna and I accepted to be an Abouna.

So you like that God made you an Abouna?
I am thankful.
