[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom did the can/may correction too! She was also a stickler for table manners, like napkin in lap, elbows off table, etc. She definitely stabbed me in the elbow with a fork more than once when I leaned my elbow on the dinner table. She is also SUPER Catholic, and would make us: say three Hail Marys before any long car trip and pray to St. Christoper (patron saint of travelers); pray to St. Vincent (patron saint of lost articles) to help us find any missing items, like a lost jacket; bless ourselves anytime we passed a Catholic church; and say a prayer any time we heard an ambulance siren. Good times Mom![/quote] Isn’t it Saint Anthony for lost articles? I remember my mom praying “Tony Tony look around Something’s lost and can’t be found”[/quote]
