Taking a break…

Shopped 'til He Dropped

…from all the pre-First Communion shopping, cleaning, and cooking to say, “Look, Mom! I wore him out!”

Except I’m the mom.

And I already know.

Happy Saturday! I hope you have sunny skies like we do, and if you’ve got rain, well, that you need it.

AMDG,

    Awww, what a cutie! Evelyn recieved her envelope in the mail and is disappointed that I won't let her open it until tomorrow. I can be mean like that. If you think of saying a prayer for her, the little dear is coming down with a very sore throat and is very sad that it is happening on the eve of her First Communion. Unfortunately I have other sick children so I think she is out of luck, but hopefully we'll keep her comfortable enough with tylonol.

    Just a quick funny…after coming out of the confessional today and saying her penance, she hopped up and anounced that she felt like she was floating on air. She also mentioned that because we went to confession in the afternoon and not in the morning, she felt like she could keep her heart clean until tomorrow.

    We'll say a prayer for your little one as well. Lots of love.

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. ♄
