Re: My Acadian Heritage

I used to sing this all the time as a kid. My mother's side was very Catholic. It was very frowned upon when I left the Catholic church. I had an aunt (passed away) who was a nun. My Mom had to go to convent school when she was young and the priests had a lot of say in what happened in the towns and families.

I sang it a lot growing up. I remember when my Mom taught me a prayer in French. My grandmother came to visit and my Mom, wanting to show me off, asked me to say it. I did and my Grandmother started laughing at me and said "no, no no!!" and tried to teach me the "right" way. I was less inclined to take French lessons from my mother after that!! LOL! But, I can sing the chorus from Dominique by memory. It sounds French to me, but I can hear my Grandmother laughing in the background!!
