4) loves every other subject
5) always comes up with good comebacks- a real smart a**. (kids made comments at his recent camping trip..as the only Catholic in his troop kids made remarks about the long mass - protestant service was 10 minutes- Jack responded with "I just love God more" and "Well, we get dinner and a movie)

"I just love God more"--beautiful!
I think Jack and Kate are awesome, too. They are great kids which is a real tribute to you, Maria. As Mother's Day approaches take that as your most precious gift - you have raised wonderful children.
I would never EVER have cleaned off our back porch without threat of death!!! haha Kudos to Kate on that one! :)
Gotta love those upstanding Murphy kids <3
great kids = great mama!
