Learning about the Five Senses

Clothing Clutter
I have been noticing that clothing is probably the number one thing that overwhelms me and robs me of sooooo much time... (Paperwork is right up there too...) After reading this post, and making this commitment, I have been sorting through TONS of clothing determined...

A (way too short) Visit
My hubby spent his 8 hours off the clock today driving home for a short visit. It was so nice to see him. Just look at the smile on our happy baby's face! The morning went by too quickly, and hubby had to get back. It looks like we should be able to meet him for Mass...

Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes
This weeks Little Saints theme is "My Five Senses"... This afternoon the girls worked on learning the song "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes". It was quite fun, and I thought I would take a second and share a few of the video clips. 🙂 (Just ignore my goofy...

Prayer of Mothers
Father in heaven, grant me the grace to appreciate the dignity which you have conferred on me. Let me realize that not even the Angels have been blessed with such a privilege—to share in your creative miracle and bring new Saints to heaven. Make me a good mother to all my children after the example of Mary, the Mother of your Son. Through the intercession of Jesus and Mary I ask your continued blessings on my family. Let us all be dedicated to your service on earth and attain the eternal happiness of your kingdom in heaven. Amen.
