To my Grandmother Nanny, whose strength of faith was a living catechism for her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.

For Wayne and our three children: Ian, Ava, and Sean.

To parents, grandparents, guardians, teachers, and catechists—you matter in the life of each child you inspire, guide, and accompany in faith.

To the parents whose stories and insights are shared in this book, thank you from the bottom of my heart for your generosity.
