I let him wear one of mine as a necklace during Mass. The kids like to handle them but there's the constant risk of breakage. And he did break the brown one, the one he was wearing, losing a small metal ring. I may be able to have it repaired but I can't do it myself even with needle-nose pliers.

I hoped he would flaunt it in front of pastor who inexplicably says, "the Virgin Mary" during the Eucharistic Prayer instead of "Mary, the virgin Mother of God." A deviation I'm extremely curious about.
