 I am a Catholic SAHM to two kids and three babies in Heaven. I like to write about Catholicism, homemaking, being a Mom, living with three mental disorders, and the like. (more?)

I have a question for all the Mamas out there: what do you do when you get that dreaded comment along the lines of “you should stop having kids.” Since I’m asking, it’s safe to say that we got that nice little bombshell dropped on us recently. I’m still at a loss as to [...] 1. Proud Catholic Mama Moment: Elise absolutely HAS to say “good morning” and “good night” to Jesus every single day. Her greetings to Him include giving the picture we have of the Sacred Heart kisses (and a little desktop crucifix we have), as well as waving and saying “deeSUS” at every image she can. [...] 1. I realized I was getting sucked into Unneeded Drama and therefore was able to back out before things got really dramatic and wanky. Hurrah! 2. Greg’s paycheck that just came in and his next one are budgeted out and the student loan payments are already mailed off. Little One’s Birth Fund is growing [...] “Remember this: God does not call the equipped; he equips the called. In my experience, God sent the babies first and then followed up with the graces as necessary. God gives us “our daily bread”, the grace we need to live up to our responsibilities one day at at time. You don’t [...] With the realization that Elise is most likely moving from a two-nap schedule to a one-nap schedule, I know I need to rework my prayer routine. I’m kind of chappy behind the ears about this, because I basically have been soaking in the “I have the best prayer routine for my needs and my [...] Yesterday I wrote a little about Elise’s lack of napping. She’s never been what you would call “The World’s Best Sleeper”, but has been pretty decent about naps. We finally figured out a routine that works for her, found her good nap times (mid morning and early afternoon), and went about life. Over the [...] Greg has been asking me for the last couple of days to put a picture up here. I put it up on Facebook, but alas; every day he asks me, “Did you put that picture up on your blog? You should really put that picture up on your blog.” And so on, and so [...] “All of us can attain to Christian virtue and holiness, no matter in what condition of life we live and no matter what our life work may be.” ~ St. Francis de Sales My aunt requested an updated belly picture, so I put this one up on Facebook for her. I didn’t realize how much larger I am with Little One until I saw this picture and compared it to Elise at 32 weeks. It also explains why I’ve been having PLENTY of issues, not limited to: [...] I’m looking at purchasing a couple of books with some saved up Amazon gift cards. I’m looking for input on two books in particular: Mom to Mom, Day to Day: Advice and Support for Catholic Living by Danielle Bean. I have yet to find someone who doesn’t like Danielle Bean, but has anyone read [...] |
