There is so much I could say but all of it can wait.
For now, dear friends, we wish you the very best—the best rest-of-Advent and the best, most beautiful, most family-centered Christmas ever.
With love from us in Him as always,
Lots of Coffee, lots of kids. It's a peaceful life.

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 try to always tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ♥

Rest assured, Barbara–I AM resting. Even stayed home from Mass this morning (which just about killed me, guilt-wise, but I prayed the prayers) to get over my head cold and rest my bottom, as per your instructions. 🙂
Tonight…Grandma Cathy & Grandpa Doug & wine & family and wonderfulness.♥

Be.still.my.heart. My heart lept for joy as I beheld his sweetness on this photo. That is one very loved and blessed little boy.
Rest well, dear Margaret, and enjoy every precious moment this Christmas.
Please give our love and kisses to Nicholas. Everyone in Blogland has a sweet spot for that little guy 😉

What a beautiful little baby. My Meggie was born thirteen years ago during Advent, and I remember that Christmas as the most wonderful ever. Singing hymns and carols for the newborn King, with our own newborn babe in my arms! I felt a special kinship with the Blessed Virgin that year. Hope you do, too!
Lots of love…
Sara says

Margaret, I just poppe in on your blog for the first time in maybe a year or two and found this beautiful blessing staring at me! Congratulations! I know you have suffered much grief in the loss of some of your children and it is so wonderful to see your new little one in your arms. I too lost a baby at 37 weeks gestation almost 5 years ago. I wish I came through it as gracefully as you seem to have but things got very dark for me for a while. I now know however that God's loving arms were holding me through it all and am so thankful for that. Congratulations again on your beautiful family.
