In honor of St. Francis’s feast day

Let us all remember the time a friend’s little brother dressed up as Saint Francis for an All-Saints’-day party. After a while the mom noticed that he was getting visibly upset, so she pulled him aside from the other kids, tried to calm him down, and asked what was wrong. Borderline hysterical, he sobbed, “They keep saying…. Saint Francis… is a sissy…. and he’s not a sissy, he’s not!”

Everyone had been complimenting him on his “St. Francis of Asissi” costume.
