~ from our family to yours ~

This picture was taken after the 4 p.m. Children’s Mass—a Mass that lasted 2 hours, approximately; a beautiful Mass filled with shepherds & angels & wise men & JESUS!

(Our daughter Cate was the star. Upon hearing the role that her sister had been assigned, Angela demanded excitedly, “Which star? Mary? The head angel?”)

(“No, Angela,” I told her. “She’s the star.”)

(“Which star?”)

(And like that the conversation could have gone on for hours.)

Merry Christmas again, everyone! May God bless you today & always.

    Merry CHRISTmas to you and your beautiful family! We've just had a lovely day here ahead of your day, so tired after hosting a hot lunch for 26 adults and 14 children (yep, all my family). Blessings to you,

    Merry Christmas, dearest. I dreamed of you last night. We had a great time –we laughed and laughed. If Christmas wishes could come true, we'd embrace in person today. God bless.

    That's so cute! And that's the best start to be: the one that shows the way to Jesus.

    Merry Christmas to your beautiful family!

Hi there!

I’m Margaret in Minnesota, and this is my mom's-eye perspective of a kid-heavy life. I love the Lord; I take lots of photos; and I always try to tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ♥
