June 29th, 2008 I sometimes feel anxious about my children’s futures. I sometimes watch the news and wonder how on earth my children will make their way in this broken world. Someone once advised me, though, that rather than wringing our hands with worry over our children’s futures, we should instead get busy praying for those futures: 1. Pray for your child to know his/her vocation and to be open to the will June 28th, 2008 This is the kind of fish you don’t eat. This is the kind of fish you wrap in several hundred layers of plastic and then place in the bottom of your mother’s freezer while your father researches taxidermy prices. Yes. It’s that awesome. UPDATE with the stats some requested: It’s a large mouth bass. It weighs 4 lbs 9 oz. and is 21 inches long. It fought hard with June 28th, 2008 Designed to celebrate the bimillennium of the birth of St Paul, which historians place between the years 7 and 10 AD, the Pauline Year, in the words of Pope Benedict, will include “a series of liturgical, cultural and ecumenical events, as well as various pastoral and social initiatives, all inspired by Pauline spirituality.” Read more and check out the great resources at Aquinas and More Catholic Goods. June 27th, 2008 Check out this German ad that encourages more babies. I remember enough college German to translate the name of the campaign, A Campaign for More Child Friendliness, and its slogan: “You are Germany.” Wow. HT: Large Family Mothering June 26th, 2008 “Hey, that thing I just said about Gabby and how I think she’s a diva and all that … was that blog worthy?” “No.” “Okay. Well, how about this? Is begging to be blog worthy blog worthy?” “Fine then.” June 26th, 2008 is to find something good and embrace it. With both hands. Slurp up every last bit of goodness without apology or restraint. Find the good stuff and hold on tight. Relish it. Devour it. Eat up every bit. |
