The Boy in the Striped Pajamas
My wife just showed me the online trailer for this new movie, and it looks quite good. We plan to go see it with our older children (i.e., those who are still at home. Our oldest five are grown and out on their own).
It’s the story of a young German boy whose father is in the Army during WWII. Not far from their house, he discovers a concentration camp and then meets and befriends — through the barbed wire — one of its denizens: a Jewish boy his own age.
Hello, Everyone and Father Bud.

Mi gran amigo, Father Bud, has been saying some extravagantly nice things about me over on his site (he is prone to exaggeration), but he won’t let me (or anyone else, for that matter) comment in response. So, this first post is intended to say “Thanks, Father!” for his many kindnesses, large and small, seen and unseen. May God reward him.
