I will read this book to pieces

“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 have to have it all figured out and feel ready to handle a gang of kids years ahead of time. If God calls you to have a large family, he will help you to do it … one child at at time.”

~ Danielle Bean, Mom to Mom, Day to Day: Advice & Support for Catholic Living

I’m finding Danielle’s book a giant exercise in “taking a deep breath and being real.” Amen, amen, amen.

   Awesome quote. I haven’t read any of her books yet and will definitely do so.

• Bad Latin

  Transitus Tiber is my horrible mistranslation of "crossing the Tiber". Obviously, I haven't had any classes in Latin.
