In the name of the Father, the Son, and........

We were saying our prayers tonight and helping Ava practice the sign of the cross, when Abby reminded me of a funny story.

One night a few years ago, we were saying prayers when Abby asked a very good question.
Abby:  Mom, if the Father is God, and the Son is Jesus, what's the Holy Spirit's name?
Me: Well, I don't really know if I've ever heard a name for the Holy Spirit.
Abby: Why?
Me:  Because it's just the Holy Spirit. 
Abby: But if God and Jesus have names, the Holy Spirit should have a name too.  That's not fair.
Me: What do you think the Holy Spirit's name should be?
Abby: Bubbles.

In the name of the Father, the Son, and Bubbles.  Amen.
