New St. Therese the Little Flower Faith Folder from Faith Folders for Catholics ~ Review & Giveaway!
In the past our family has enjoyed a number of other Faith Folders (aka Lap Books) from Faith Folders for Catholics including the Advent Lap Book, Lent Lap Book, and most recently the Year for Priests Lap Book. They all turned out beautifully and I just love seeing my children pull them back out from time to time to look through (or show others!) their work.
Like all of the other Faith Folders we have enjoyed, Lindy (owner of Faith Folders for Catholics) has done an amazing job at putting together a lovely collection of mini-books for this Folder on St. Therese, from the sweet little rose shaped book containing “Words of the Little Flower,” to the “Road to Carmel” pick a tab book, and so many more.
The St. Therese the Little Flower Faith Folder can be purchased from Holy Learning (previously Faith Folders for Catholics) for only $10 (Digitial E-Book Option) or $14 (CD-Rom Option). To enter this give-away:

Little Flowers Girls’ Club ~ Loyalty
The notebook page for St. Lucy was my favorite from this past year. It was simple, but I just loved the image of St. Lucy and thought the page turned out so pretty. We started with red and white cardstock. I then found a poppy flower border (flipping it for the right side of the page) to decorate the corners. I also typed the St. Lucy prayer so that, when it was cut out by the girls, it would be heart shaped. The document I made can be downloaded here.
Saint Lucy teach us loyalty.
Saint Therese, the Little Flower, pray for us!

The Annunciation Coloring Page
(I choose this coloring page since our meeting ended up falling on March 25th, the feast of the Annunciation, and since the Feast of the Annunciation is a celebration of the actual Incarnation of Jesus Christ, for which Blessed Mary of the Incarnation is named.)
Other beautiful coloring pages of the Annunciation can be found here and here.
There is also a lovely illustration of Blessed Mary of the Incarnation, included in an Icon Art Project for Little Flowers, which I ran across just a little too late to incorporate into our meeting.

The girls did a beautiful job creating their notebook pages!
Saint Therese, the Little Flower, pray for us!

Back-to-School :: 2010-2011
My Daybook :: Sep 8/9, 2010
Outside my (open) window… I can hear the crickets chirping. It’s really late and I should probably get to bed, but it has been forever (a whole week!) since I’ve had any “extra” time for blogging and I am really beginning to miss this little space!
I am thankful… that Hubby made it home this past Sunday night! Thank you all for your prayers for his safety.
I am hoping and praying… that our first day of school, which will be in the morning, will go well and we will get off to a good start for this coming school year, despite the fact that I am still not “ready.” I don’t think that I mentioned it here, but we did look into putting at least some of our children into school for this year, but in the end I just couldn’t bring myself to do it. I keep telling myself that things will be much easier when our remodel is finished and that I shouldn’t be making any major decisions while our life is so overwhelming and chaotic. Right?!?
From the kitchen… It has been so nice to have a refrigerator and oven in the house once again, and tomorrow morning in just 6 hours our COUNTERTOPS are going to be installed! On Friday, the plumber will be back to install our kitchen sink, faucet, and dishwasher. And then next week our contractor will install the tile backsplash. The rest of the electrical will be completed soon and sometime (within the next couple weeks) the cabinet maker will be back to install all of the door fronts and crown molding. I had hoped that it would be finished before we started school, but thankfully it won’t be too much longer. It is all coming together so beautifully and is going to be SUCH a blessing!!!
It has been awhile since I’ve posted any pictures here, so here are a few:
From the learning rooms… Back-to-School Schultütes for tomorrow morning!
Living the Liturgical Year at Home… Happy Birthday Blessed Mother!! In the past years we’ve always baked a cake on the 8th, but this year I think we will wait until the 12th.
I am listening to… audio books with my children, particularly while driving to and from town! We recently finished listening to the Chronicles of Narnia, Once Upon a Time Saints, and Enemy Brothers
, and now we have moved on to A Little History of the World
.
I am creating… plans for Little Flowers.
I am wearing… my ankle brace (when I remember to put it on), but I am finally getting around pretty well without crutches! Yay!!
I am reading… the summer issue of Mater et Magistra.
Our little Rose… is turning into a toddler way too quickly! Her bottom right tooth was the first to break through on Aug 25th, and tehn her left bottom tooth and top left tooth came in this week. She is standing up (but not get walking) on her own. Oh, and she also loves to climb! Thankfully Hubby had just lowered the mattress (again!) to the very lowest setting a couple weeks ago.
Noticing that… Rose giggles every time she sees her reflection. It is so cute!
Around the house… I posted a few pictures of our new tile, but our wood floor has been installed as well! I somehow managed to order the wrong color (aka: not quite the color Hubby picked) but, even though it is very dark, I think it turned out gorgeous!
On keeping home… I had a feeling that all 18″ of Baking Sheet Storage would come in handy. 🙂
One of my favorite things… With all of the new hard surfaces in our home I am just loving my new Dirt Devil and Shark Steam Mop
!!
