O my God, I am sorry for my sins with all my heart. in choosing to do wrong and failing to do good, I have sinned against you whom I should love above all things. I firmly intend, with your help, to do penance, to sin no more, and avoid whatever leads me to sin. Amen.
Yup - I don't remember my childhood - I don't remember going to Disney world - and I can't picture my second grade teacher - but that I could recite from memory. And on Christmas the other day some Latin Christmas song came on some cd my mom got and I could sing every word because I sang it in chorus in 7th grade. I am officially a freak of nature.
