Did you hear about this woman?

I simply cannot forget this one
Christopher sat down at the table with the younger ones (Thomas and Marie) to eat lunch while I continued to homeschool the older kids in the other room. He shouted out, “But Mommy, we didn’t pray for the food!” “Christopher, why don’t you pray for the table, and then you can start eating.” And so … [Read more…]
Some of my favorite blog posts…
Why am I still up at 1:00 AM? Simple. This is the first time of the day that I have been ALONE. I needed a “Mommy break,” so I’m up checking out some of my favorite blogs… and my goodness, there’s a lot of good stuff out there! Questions from bad soap operas to cremation, … [Read more…]

Unbelievable!), so when he’s holding his ear, crying his little heart out, and saying, “mommy, why did Adam and Eve have … [Read more…]
Shhh! Nobody tell my daughter I’ve escaped!
She thinks I’m still lying next to her in bed. Poor thing. She’s not feeling well, so it’s been “all about Mommy” for the past several days. She’s being even more clingy than usual, which means blogging time has been… well… non-existent. Bless her heart. It’s hard to be upset about it (well, not when … [Read more…]
Ooh… Some Lenten reading
The Internet Monk has a wonderful post on Lent. I am especially intrigued by one of the resources he mentioned: The Church Fathers Lenten Reading Plan. I better get my printer ready — that is just way to fantastic to pass up!
I got tagged!
Jen over at Et-Tu? tagged me for the book meme. Book Meme Rules:1. Pick up the nearest book (of at least 123 pages).2. Open the book to page 123.3. Find the fifth sentence.4. Post the next three sentences.5. Tag five people. The book closest to me at this moment (of that size) is The Way … [Read more…]
