Happy Saints Works of Mercy eBook Review

As we entered into Holy Week, I started thinking, "I need help with this one." Talking to a three-year-old about Jesus' death and Resurrection is a challenge to say the least. I found myself talking much more about the Easter Bunny than Jesus. And wow . . . that was not what I pictured myself doing before I was a parent. Meanwhile I am finding myself researching The Works of Mercy.  In my … [Read more...] about Happy Saints Works of Mercy eBook Review

Prayer, Wine, Chocolate, Easter.

For years my husband and I longed to have children. When holidays came around, our desire for a family intensified.  It didn't seem right for two adults to sit around dying Easter eggs. The absence of a child was, well . . .a downer. In our effort to keep our spirits high, my husband and I gave one another Easter baskets. And now, we have a child!  And this year, finally . . . he's old enough to … [Read more...] about Prayer, Wine, Chocolate, Easter.

Mocha, Mercy and Monday: Comfort the Afflicited

This is a letter to my friend who lost her husband to brain cancer last year.  He was only in his 30's. It was Easter Tuesday . . . the same day three years before, our other close friend lost her husband (also in his 30's).  If you choose to read more, keep in mind the two men we lost loved playing hockey together. My Dear Friend, It's not fair.  It's so not fair.  As I sit here trying to think … [Read more...] about Mocha, Mercy and Monday: Comfort the Afflicited

God Hears Us: A Spiritual Adoption Miracle {Free Printable}

This post contains affiliate links.  Please see my About Me page for more details.  Thanks for reading! My nerves were on edge as I pulled into the parking lot near the Planned Parenthood clinic. As I got myself and my three-year-old son out of the car, I made sure to grab some rosaries. I had been told to have them in my hand so the PP escort wouldn’t think I was there for an appointment . . . … [Read more...] about God Hears Us: A Spiritual Adoption Miracle {Free Printable}

Mocha, Mercy and Mondays: Bearing Wrongs Patiently

Do you know someone with "selective" hearing?  Do you know anyone who may have a "selective" memory? I know there have been moments in my life where I thought - or maybe I should say - accused - a person of having one or both. After looking over the list of the Spiritual Works of Mercy, I realize that I too am guilty of having a 'selective' memory. I do NOT bear wrongs patiently.  I become the … [Read more...] about Mocha, Mercy and Mondays: Bearing Wrongs Patiently

Beautiful Little Flowers: The Little Flower Book Review

I received a free copy of The Little Flower: A Parable about St. Therese' in order to review the book.  All opinions are my own! Do you remember being young, and wanting to do something that you could not do because you "weren't big enough"? Whether it's your three-year-old who wants to use a jackhammer or your tween that wants a cell phone, we find ourselves telling our children, "when you're … [Read more...] about Beautiful Little Flowers: The Little Flower Book Review
