Hubby had to work today, so the kids and I spent the day at my parents. I just love their backyard!! The trees don't even have all their leaves, and it still looks beautiful. I just love the Spring.

Snuggles first time swingin' outside!
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.
